Is It Serious If Passing Undigested Food And Orange Brown Stools?

height 5'4", 135 pounds, age 35, female. 1 live birth, 1 miscarage, hemroids, healthy otherwise. Stool is looking like my instestines are not breaking down the food. It is also like if it had stretchy skin like fibers and it is not dark brown in color, but a tan with orange brown. should I be concerned?
