loose pants, then tight ones after eating?

I can have my slacks so lose they might fall off until I eat.  I may eat a half sandwich it all and when I Am done the waist is so tight I am miserable?  I guess it has to be gas.  I know it is gas but this is unbelievable to the degree...........Anyone else?

Also, anyone else having a hard time now watching what they eat>  I have been very bad.......

Happy New Year Everyone!

ps. remind me how I change my avitar please.......thx

I would say give up the bread if you are bloating after it may be that you have an allergy to it ...and your body bloats after...try taking the meat and rolling it up with cheese ...see how you feel ..So far I have been doing ok with the holiday eating but I just had hernia surgery and just have not been in the eating mode ...

umm yeah if something is giving you gas THAT BAD..stop eating it.

Everything gives me gas now!  No mercy!

Check out beetles page she has a step by step video.  This is the only way I cn do it.  gotta love Beetle!!!_char

There ya go. Simple carbs will expand in your gut causing lots of gas and discomfort in your rerouted intestines. Avoid those to prevent lots of uncomfortable gas and bloating. And it's still in there even if you've eaten healthy at the meals where you've experience it. Cut down the simple carbs, cut down the gas.

Carbs make your stomach swell.  That's why I say " I wasn't obese all those years.  I just ate too many carbs."  Bwahaha!

 

One thing I have found after losing so much weight.  Even after a regular compliant normal size wls friendly meal, NO GAS, my stomach protrudes.  I notice every single thing in my abdomen, stomach, everywhere in that area.....  prior to wls I was so big, I did not notice   a 5 lb weight if someone were to have set it on me !

Even being bloated slightly, I feel that a lot.  My pants aren't loose and then tight after eating, but one day I get up and they may be snug due to bloatation.  

 

I agree with the others.  Lay off the carbs, leave out the bread, stay away from the gas causing foods....  it will cause you to feel better emotionally, mentally and physically...  

If the reaction is that immediate, then I'd wonder if you had a hernia.  It takes a little while for gas to form.  Ask your doctor when you see him/her next.
