I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack? (lemmy.world)

Please don't ask why I need this.

It would be great if the food also made me sweat less.

It has to be something I can easily find.

EDITS FOR CLARIFICATION:

I am not planning on partaking in any illegal activities.
I do not condone the use of illegal substances and am not planning on smuggling anything anywhere.
I am not going on a hiking trip or mailing myself anywhere.
I will be staying in a tent (not a small one; a huge with with air conditioning and everything). I will be traveling for five days, returning to my current location on day 3 and traveling again on the last two days. I will not poop on the first three days (hopefully).
Clean toilets with all the expected facilities will be available to me. I am not going to poop for reasons that I wish to keep to myself.
If it gets bad, like really bad, like a-piece-of-poop-is-literally-halfway-out-my-ass bad, I will use the toilets.

Please stop asking because I am not telling anyone the reason.

My guess is that OP is going to be in a circus performance (which explains the large tent with air conditioning). As to the reason they don't want to poop, it might be because:

their costume(s) are difficult to remove
there is something about the bathroom that they find creepy/unsettling
they have an STD or other infection in that area of their body and don't want to risk having anyone find out unexpectedly, or don't want to risk spreading it to others via the toilet seat (gonna be real idk if thats even a thing but it feels like it could be)
they hold some kind of superstition about pooping during the initial travel period, or about entering the bathroom, or something that is in the bathroom
they have to get to the bathroom by passing an area and/or person that they dislike and/or feel uncomfortable around
they take notoriously large shits and don't want to clog the toilet
they just have really bad poop anxiety

Anyway, best of luck to you OP. Hope whatever you're doing works out and that you stay as safe as you can. Update us when you come back!
