What Causes Semi Formed Stools 2-3 Times A Day?

I am a 51 year old male. I am having semi formed stools 2/3 times a day for about 4 weeks now. I am a diabetic patient who takes two 500mg metformin tablets daily. I did colonoscopy test and found it normal. US scan detects some sones in my Gallbladder. Weight loss is also detected for three months. BMI 18.5

What would be the cause for semi formed stools?
