It's a genuine problem. I avoid pasta as it makes me bloat, but have tried it this last week because of joining SW. Had three bean pasta salad for tea (small/medium portion) and within an hour I looked heavily pregnant. It's bizarre! Has always been the same with bread and rice too so I avoid them. Anyone else have this problem? Any advice?

Have you tried different types of pasta, wholemeal, egg, etc? If it happens with bread and rice too, could be a possible gluten intolerance? Worth asking your GP for advice maybe - and sticking to more potatoey type stuff?

The only possible advice is to say just don't eat it. There are so many choices on SW, there's no need to persist with something that disagrees with you.
I will try gluten free this week as suggested above. Maybe rice is not a problem - maybe I've had it on the same day as wheat and assumed it was the rice.
SO, when I went to bed last night I weighed 10st 10pounds. This morning I weighed 10st 3pounds. My stomach was flat. Incidentally every night since starting SW I am getting up to pee at least 4 times a night! So yesterday I didn't drink anything after 1pm. But the amount I pee'd last night was loads! Must be water retention? Does bloating caused by wheat cause water retention like that?
I wish my weigh was in the mornings!! Ha ha!!!!
