Bowel movements.: Bowel movements are your body's way of getting rid of solid waste matter. If you were not able to do this and stopped having them altogether, you would accumulate waste products and eventually die. Why are you wanting to eliminate them?

Everybody stools: Stool volume is largely dependent on what & how much you eat, effectiveness of digestion, gut flora, GI transit time. Not sure I undertstand the point of your question--are you asking to stop stooling ever?
