I get bloated but this is rediculious; I look pregnant. I ate things today that I wouldnt thought would make me bloated, but I guess Im wrong. I ate a poptart and I was thinking maybe it has milk in it but no, but lots of frutose
HUMMMMMMMM????????!!!!!!!!

Nurturing, you're not usually bloated? I'm beginning to think this pregnancy look is a permanent fixture. I've been wearing stretch pants for years now, and I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm keeping my pants with waistbands -- just in case -- but I'm also having to be realistic with myself; this just isn't going away.

I hope you have better luck than I.

I am glad to know I am not the only one with this problem. I use the acacia supplement and drink fennel tea, but I still get that pregnant look too. I too have resorted to pants with waistbands to allow for a growing tummy thruoghout the day..My tummy slowly gets larger thru the day till I am miserable with a tight belly at bedtime. I start off the day fine.. I just don't understand!

I hate the stupid bloating. When I was a lot, lot younger I told my Mom I hated eating because my stomach always swelled up three times the size of me and she told me that people's stomachs just don't do that. Well, turns out the *average* person's stomach doesn't do that, but mine sure does.

On the plus side however, I was bloated and I went to Pilates class the other day and at the end of it, I wasn't!

Ive thought about designing an IBS clothing line, with elastic waist and looser shirts but that doesnt look old, sorry, not meaning to say people are old, but we all need some hip clothing. I can sew and draw.

We were just talking about that in another thread! Kandee suggested that we start out own line of jeans, and I said we should call them "Tender Tummies"! Seriously, though, I know how you girls feel with the bloating thing. It's my time of the month right now, so with that and the IBS I feel like a whale. Sigh.

I could make hip pants flared and bootcut, with elastic
