A member asked:
Still having floating stool. but consistency and color is normal, normal shape (one piece), and not greasy looking. i noticed im burping a lot between meals as well as passing gas. am i just swallowing that much air throughout the day/with meals?

I think your stool tends to float because it also contains gas. With your frequent burping you're swallowing a lot of air. Try taking simethicone 1/2 hour after eating to prevent gas build up. Avoid gassy foods and beverages. Drink less liquids as you're eating.
