Boiled potato is a good option since it helps in binding.
Add little bit of roasted cumin seeds and rock salt to curd and drink it mid-day.
Next Steps
Consume atleast 2-2.5 L of fluids per day with electrolytes.
Consume a soft diet mostly moong dal khichdi, curd-rice, daliya etc.
Eat a banana with little bit of herbs and lemon.
Health Tips
Avoid salads, or heavy dal (chickpeas, kidneybeans, urad etc), milk and milk products.

Healthy morning,
Eating bland foods can help loose motions go away faster and prevent stomach upset and irritation.
You can follow the BRAT diet, which stands for bananas, rice , applesauce, toast . This diet also helps firm up stool.
Bland diet includes
Cooked cereals, like oatmeal, cream of wheat, boiled or baked potatoes
Drinks plenty of liquid can help you stay hydrated
