2 weeks out and so bloated.. after I eat...

Hey,,

I am two weeks out which means I am still in the liquid phase.. I feel so bloated after I have my fill liquids.. Whats the deal? I am having muscle milk, assorted soups, opti-fast, still have clear broths. Water as well with protien water,, I tried the dinkable yogurt, but it was nasty... Thanks Lisa

Its probably from all the sodium in the soups... I quit broths and went to just protein water... broths have tons and tons of sodium..

Oh the horrible bloat lasted for weeks on me! It was yucky. But with time, it will pass.

It isn't sodium from the soups.

It's a mixture of the CO2 gas they blew us up with, swelling (internally) from surgery and from our stomachs getting used to something there bugging it, cut muscles knitting back together and general whatnot.

It will pass. You'll shrink. The day your body will allow a waistband that doesn't stretch, you're there.

I was like that too...so bloated I thought my port was going to come through my tummy...it would get really hard.

Luckily, it was just gas and would come out eventually....it will pass and get easier!

You are doing great!

I also had the bloating. It did pass....in one way or another. I think for everyone the period of time you feel like this is diffferent.
