Start a bowel journal during low-battery days

Create a first record you can return to. A phone that runs out of power can interrupt recording before you have saved anything.

What makes this useful

Start with a visit that actually happened, rather than trying to reconstruct an entire week.

Check Journal for a saved entry before entering the same visit again after charging. A consistent label such as “low battery” helps connect the day you remember with the visit you saved.

A practical way to begin

  1. Choose the closest shape, answer how the visit felt, then record duration and whether you felt finished.
  2. Add any optional note or visit-time correction before saving, then review the saved result.
  3. For low-battery days, one recognizable detail is enough to start: “Phone needed charging; visit happened earlier this morning.” Add it only if it describes your visit.

An example of useful context

“Phone needed charging; visit happened earlier this morning.”

Did the earlier attempt save, or are you creating a duplicate?

Use your own wording and the details you remember. A short, recognizable note makes it easier to find the visit later.
