I track bathroom trips in the same sheet as water, protein, and sleep. Last 21 days: 13 loose episodes between 4:50 and 6:30 a.m., zero after noon. The weird part is my trendline looks almost flat by week three, then jumps on days after late high-fat dinners. Not saying it's one thing.
I added a column for dinner time and fat grams, and the correlation is annoyingly tidy. Coffee before 7 makes it worse; skipping coffee past 8 changes the whole morning. I'm not looking for a diagnosis, just comparing notes.
Has anyone else seen their gut clock shift earlier rather than just upset all day? What column would you add next: bedtime, fiber, or stress?
