I could have written your post. I am GF, eat IF/SF ratios that are safe, exercise and drink tons of water too. Can't explain it. Somedays I just bloat from nothing at all. And I am always 2-3 inches bigger every night when I go to bed. The pain though is a killer when I bloat with pain-I just want to die.

I don't go out a lot because I always feel fat-nothing fits. If it fits in the AM, it is tight in the PM. I have to cover my preggy tummy. It is so embarassing-I am ashamed of my body even though I couldn't live a healthier lifestyle if I tried.

I cook everything myself most days so that I only eat unprocessed, safe foods. I do the grazing thing. I am always self conscious and frustrated about the bloating. I am fairly slim as well-but with the bloating I feel like I am obese all the time and never want anyone else to know what my body looks like.

I am single-so it is hell on the social life. I swear I am becoming a hermit.

I have managed to alleviate the C on most days with the IF added in to my diet again. When I was dieting and not eating any IF- I felt thinner but was C all the time (weeks) and had pain every day. I am not sure what the answer is-I keep wondering myself.

I am open to any and all advice here too. I am going to buy some fennel tea. Have not tried that yet.

Thanks everyone-it feels better not to be alone-however, I wish we had an answer that we could share and get rid of this.
