Bowl moments went from hard logs to skinny soft loose stool. why might this be? bit foul smell

Constipation: It is always better to have soft stools. I bet there is a new change in your diet, and probably you are eating more vegetables and drinking more fluids and this is healthy. Sometimes when we are always stressed out our bowel movement is softer and more frequent.
