bad gas and able to eat more ,any body else?
Are you keeping a food journal? Maybe it would be a good idea if you're not already doing it, and log when you're having the gas issues as well. This might help you identify which foods are more likely to "do it to you".
I've heard that papaya extracts are good for digestion. But, you have to be careful that they don't have added sugar.
Good luck!!
I've noticed that if I eat too fast, or gulp my liquids, I get more gas. Certain foods cause worse smells. This is gross, but sometimes I can tell what I ate by the smell of the farts. Carbonation causes a lot more gas, since I have little burping ability.
My weight loss has slowed significantly, but I am still shrinking rapidly. In fact, I think I may be shrinking at a faster rate than I was. We have plenty of good weight loosing time ahead of us yet, so don't panic, but do keep an eye on what's going into your body. You have done a great job! Oh yeah, I've found that Devrom helps a lot with the smell. It can cause constipation, so prepare for that possibility (I take more fiber).

I find that I have more gas when I eat carbs and drink any liquid too soon. I went from 286 to 174 and then hit a plateau. I joined Curves and it made all the difference. I went from 174 to 136, my goal. I hate to exercise, but I have to recommend Curves. The movement from one station to another every 35 sec helps with the boredom and you will soon make friends to talk to as you move around the circuit.
