Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain loose motions after meals and having frequent motions since 4 to 5 weeks can be due to common causes like:
-Food intolerance or allergies to certain foods..
-Viral gastroenteritis.
-Parasitic infestation.
-Food allergies.
-Excess intake of tea and coffee.
-Electrolyte imbalance.
-Irritable bowel syndrome etc..

As of now you should start taking anti diarrhea medication like Loperaminde, take fluid replacement therapy that is drink plenty of oral rehydration salts by dissolving in water and take more of banana, yoghurt, rice and cereals..

In case of no resolution in next 3 to 4 days consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like blood tests and stool culture can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..
You can be advised antibiotics, Albendazole etc depending upon the cause diagnosed..
If it is due to food allergies the cause will be ruled out and eliminated from your diet..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
