    If you are sitting on the toilet so long your legs start to get numb, you are probably constipated.

    This started happening to me a few days ago (on the toilet) and I don't have to be sitting there a long time, it starts very quickly. I have lost body fat recently, could that be why it's starting to happen? Like, there's less cushioning so it's easier for them to get cut off being pressed between the hard surface of the toilet seat and the relative firmness of muscle?
