If it happens after sweets or sugary foods--it could be "dumping syndrome"
when your intestine gets a big load of sugar, it can cause you to have to poop right away--you can help it by having some fiber or fat with your meal to slow things down a bit or just avoid processed carbs like white flour and sugar
also the fake sugars like maltitol and stuff are major diarrhea producers
it is probably dietary, sometimes you can elimiate certain food groups--like dairy or nuts, etc for a few days and see if that clears it up
i get the runs anytime I have a lot of fiber, if it has been a long time since I had any, I have to build up my tolerance for it...
Some peoples' tummies are more sensitive thanothers...
Also, I used to be able to eat whatever, I never got sick, but now in my old age I have to take it easier
also, if you are on a new medication like effexor or zoloft--it can speed up your intestine motility...
