why am i so bloated?!?!?
so i’ve been trying very hard to lose weight lately. i’ve gone from 138 lbs to 125 lbs over the past 8-9 months.
this might be tmi, but i’ve been pretty constipated the past few days and decided that today i didn’t want to eat that much until i “went to the bathroom”. my stomach felt huuuuge so i thought that i probably gained at least a few lbs. i just stepped on the scale and i only weigh 125.5.
why is my stomach so huge than? i look like i’m pregnant. all i’ve eaten today is: Black Tea w/ a little cream and honey, a little Green Tea, a chocolate almond biscotti dipped in coffee (didn’t drink the coffee, just dipped) some organic wheat thins and lots of water. i know lactose intolerance is a cause of bloating, but i only had the smallest amount of cream in my tea.
how can i get rid of the bloating? (any constipation advice is appreciated as well)
p.s. not anywhere near that time of the month, so i don’t think its hormonal bloating.
thanks!
Did you eat anything yesterday to make you bloat?
From what you listed, you may possibly not be eating enough. Not getting adequate nutrition can cause your belly to swell. Drink plenty of water and you might try a vitamin or increasing your veggie intake.
For what its worth: My mother in law recently mentioned something like this and her doctor told her to lay off the green tea. She said that helped because she used to drink it every morning.
