Drink lots and lots and lots of water. The bloating will go

I felt like this when I first stated slimming world however it does pass. As Jaylou has said, make sure you drink plenty of water.

Thanks ladies, I've set myself a water challenge this week actually, (started wed's) and each day I drink one more glass than the day before so its 5 glasses today, bad I know that I should be drinking at least 8 anyway!!

I hope adding no added suger squash doesn't muck it up?

plus try wheat free pasta, its often an intolerance to pasta that bloats you

 

[Lucylu79]

I'm keeping up the water challenge ladies!!

I'm up to 5 pints a day now!!!!!!!

Try peppermint tea, it helps. Also watch how much fruit you have and try to have fruit before a meal rather than after. I cant eat more than three pieces of fruit a day cos of the bloating.

I get this with pasta... had 2 pasta meals this week and am heading for a gain. Yes I have been over on syns but not drastically that should mean a gain and can only put it down to the fact that I haven't eaten pasta for a while having stuck to red days or extra easy where I tend to have potatoes and rice. I've also felt very bloated in the evenings after pasta... funny isn't it? I was told to try going back to wholegrain instead of white pasta to see if that makes a difference.

I think this is common if you don't do green days very often. Every time you have the sudden increase in pasta it comes as a shock to your body and retain loads of water. Better to do it on a regular basis than the odd day here and there. And of course you can do green days without ever eating pasta!

 

[Lucylu79]

Yeah do you know what I rarely do do green days and so perhaps it is that, its such a shock to the system!

wheat in pasta is for some the work of the devil, apparently it can be very undigestible and is a sponge when sat in the gut (hence the osmosis theory and absorbing fluid in your tummy). i have to say wheat free stuff isnt great and is expensive but can be a possible help.
