TMI bloat/gas question

you guys the amount of bloat and gas I have is crazy. like overnight it appeared.

I'm having regular bm's so I don't feel constipated.

Is there something I can eat that will help or keep it from being so bad? I don't care that my belly looks bloated.

and I know its normal.

  • I was terribly bloated and gassy yesterday. I have suffered from constipation though. I ate two huge plates of salad with the leafy green lettuce last night. This morning it had helped.

    Speak sweetly so that if you ever have to eat your words, they don't taste bad.

    Lesson learned!!

  • I feel like nothing fits anymore because of bloat. 

    I have gas too.

  • I think i'll go to Target tonight and get a knock off bella band
  • Have you tried a hairtye?  You loop it through the button hole, then wrap it around the button.  It really helps for those bloated days where you know you don't need a fully on belly band yet, but buttoning your pants hurts.

    the pants i'm wearing today don't have a regular button. it has like 2 side latch things...if that makes sense at all.

    I do know that trick though!

    I'm assuming dress pants.

    Take the hairtye and loop it through the "eye" part that it latches into. Then hook it to the hairtye.  I have to use a thinner hairtye with my dress pants though, and I use one for each of the hooks.
