I hope my explanation on why I think bloating happens didn't come across as dismissing the problem or me just being a smart-ass (which I can be guilty of, but not here). I just know I was bloated after BTC, when I started adding in vegetables--and it still happens and I think, for me, it's just not being accustomed to those IF foods. And I didn't mean to suggest that bloating wasn't a big deal or that it would definitely go away after a while. Bloating seems like one of the more difficult symptoms to manage.
My bloating seems to go hand-in-hand with a D attack--so if I get really bloated I start feeling anxious! But I also get it along with PMS, so I hope, Lucrece, that's all it turns out to be.
And Beth, I'm sorry you're not having any luck with your bloat. The first year I had IBS and was trying to figure out what to do, I was bloated all the time and my "friend" used to always comment on it--saying I was fat or why was my belly so big. So frustrating! I think she told people I had a worm or something!
