Answer

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.

I'm not a doctor just a mom of 5 kids,....so your best bet is to see your own physician to supplement this answer.
