Is it normal to have frequent bowel movements when dieting?
June 6th, 2009 | 
Author: I know this may come as a weird question. But I started dieting about a week ago. Nothing major, just replaced unhealthy snacks with carrots and celery, and quit eating fried foods and some other unhealthy foods.
Anyhow, My bowel movements were about once a day before I started this, and the stool was pretty firm(?) (I can't find the right word).
But now I am going about 4 times a day and the stool has become loose. It is not diarrhea, it is just really loose and more frequent than before.
I mean is this normal or what?
Serious replies only please!
