Why would you not have bowel movements very often and when you do it is green and runny?

Not having many bowel movements can come from not drinking enough water (to flush your system), not eating enough fiber (like raisen bran and breads) and a host of other reasons. Runny green bowel movements can come from eating green foods (like broccoli, cabbage, etc). Stress for men and for a woman her monthly cycle can also cause runny bowel movements.

What eating disorders cause a change in bowel movement?

First of all, if you're concerned that you have an eating disorder, you may need to contact a doctor or psychiatrist, talk to your parents, or peers. Eating disorders are not healthy, and can do lots of long term damage to your body. To answer your question: All of the above, and much more. Any change in your diet, the frequency with which you eat, or even your environment (added stress from a new job, moving into a new house) can result in a change in your bowel movements. There is no perfect definition of a 'normal' bowel movement, and there are many factors which can cause changes in your bowel movements. However, if you're experiencing less than 3 bowel movements a week, or more than 3 watery bowel movements a day, you may need to contact a doctor.
