Not unusual.: It is not unusual to have urgent bowel movements after meals that are high in fatty content. However, what is unusual is to have a change in bowel habits. What I would recommend is to increase the amount of fiber in your diet for now. If this does not work, or if you see any evidence of bleeding, unexplained weight loss, or other symptoms, see your primary care doctor. Good luck.
