you're not eating healthy enough. If you're really healthy your ppop should be a light brown and it should float.

You don't eat enough food.. which is why you're only 96 lbs. The color of your stools is based on the foods you eat. Your diet needs to change. Read what is below...

For your age & height, you should weigh between 105 and 130 lbs. You need to eat right starting today.
To gain weight you only need to eat a little more calories than you burn each day. Try keeping a diary to track your activity (calories burned) and what you eat (calories in), Just make sure you eat more than you burn. There is a good desk top tool called diet and exercise at KEYOE.com that can help you safely gain or loose weight. Also Protein supplements can help. What ever you do,,, DON'T EAT JUNK. Use good habits to control weight (gain or loss). Also, start lifting weights to add muscle mass. Might as well put on muscle and not fat..
BUT you are too thin... and you are not eating enough.. Seek some help from your doctor or church..

My question for you is: Would you describe it as a dark/tarry stool? If so, you need to see a doctor as this could indicate bleeding.
But you seem like a young and healthy person. Poop can be dark for a lot of reasons though. Did you know Pepto-Bismol can turn your poop black?

Interesting question :D
It's a good question I found a research answer for you.
Here is what it said:
Very dark stools: Too much red wine, too much salt in the diet, not enough vegetables. Blueberries, Pepto-Bismol (the bismuth in it) and iron pills can also be responsible for dark stools.
found it here:
http://www.naturalhealthtechniques.com/SpecificDiseases/bowelmovements.htm
I know that too much iron can make your stools dark black also so can blood in stools.
See your doctor and don't be freaked out it's ok to ask a question oh K :D

First thing I would do is make an appointment with my doctor, just to check things out.
Second thing I would do is resolve to eat more than one meal a day. Even if your one meal was 1500 calories, your body counts on being fed consistently in order for your brain and body to work to work consistently....even when you think you aren't hungry, you need to grab some granola, yogurt or a piece of fruit to keep your metabolism going.
The color of your poop is indicative of a slowed digested system (because you aren't eating your fruits and veggies or drinking water)...but also, could maybe be a because you have a problem in your upper intestines or intestinal system...like an ulcer?
Also...I don't think that being 5"2' and 96 pounds is an ideal weight for anyone, let alone a 16 year old female, unless you are naturally and inherently small boned and petite.
Regardless...go see your doctor. It could be as simple as you taking in too much iron or eating a lot of fiber filled food. But, if you are worried, you should talk to your doctor...hopefully there is nothing wrong, but you should check with him/her anyway.
In the meantime...EAT..girl, EAT!!!!

there are probably several things wron righ tnow, i know you hate to hear it but i suggest you discuss this over with your mom. you should normally poop at least once a day. Also if you dont have a mother currently or permanantley you should talk it over with a teacher at school or the school nurse, maybe even a best friends mom.
If your too emberassed to resort to any of this, just try eating oranges and citrussy things to help you poop more.
Hope i helped!!!

It is old. It has been sitting in you to long. It will turn into poison to your system. My wife developed colon cancer for that very reason. Colon cancer will kill in weeks if it is untreated.
You need to drink water. At least one quart a day. Chilled bottled water tastes the best. It will keep you flushed out and your poop will generally be lighter.

I cant explain like a doctor, but I'll do my best. you go twice a week. so when poop is in your anus, then the body will "dry" it. which means that the body is taking out all the nutritious things and water thats inside the poop. if the body wouldnt do that, then we would have a diarrhea. the longer is in it, the more dry it will become. I'm a vegeterian so I dont eat a lot and I also go like twice a week and the poop is dry and dark.

Discoloration of feces can be the result of a liver problem or a series of other problems. for instance drug withdraw can cause discoloration, it could be something you ate. I don't think you need to worruy but if it persists for more than 2 weeks than see a doctor.

really dark could mean that there is a signicant amount of blood. dont get so scared though, go see a doctor. if there are no other symptoms, there are bigger chances it was just something you ate. but be careful!!!!! try eat at least every 4 5 hours. dont stay more than 5 hours wihtout food.

If you don't poop at least once a day there is something wrong with you. You need to eat more.
Plain and simple.
I know Pepto-Bismol makes it black or really dark.

You are probably not getting enough good food. Soups are good for that. If you only eat dry foods, then you will be in trouble soon. Try drinking a lot of water too. By the way... try eating more then once a day... at least twice =/

It depends on your diet, which doesn't have enough fibre. Dark stool can indicate blood in the stool which can be nasty.

If it continues go to a doctor just in case. In rare cases it means bleeding.
However, some over the counter medicines like Pepto-Bismol can also make it black and in that case it is completely harmless.

Your not eating enough. Your supposed to eat 3 meals a day, first of all. Your body is not getting enough nutrients. Secondly, have you been constipated for long? That can also change the color of your stools. Also foods such as beets and spinach and other dark vegetables can cause the color to change. Sounds to me like your intestines are starving! EAT~!

Why do you care what color it is if you don't care about your health? You obviously don't care about your health if you only eat once a day. And you're obviously not eating enough if you only have a bowel movement twice a week. Get some therapy, then worry about your poop. Sigh.
