yeah, your transit time might be faster with the movicol so you are experiencing a change in stool color due to digestive juices that are making their way through your system faster than normal. Also, are you sure you're eating enough calories? Your diet sounds pretty lean, and when the body is being undernourished there can also be this kind of change in stool color.
