Bloating, argh!

Anyone eat something and immediately and I mean immediately have their belly swell up? I took a few sips of my afternoon protein drink and felt soreness along with a big amount of bloating. That was an hour to an hour and a half ago and I'm still bloated. My pants which were swimming on me early this morning were uncomfortably tight - I told you BIG - serious bloating. This happens very rarely to me but I wish I know what it was so I could avoid it. This is the same protein powder (drink) I had yesterday afternoon and last night. Same jug of powder, same recipe. Geez. Kathy

that is strange ... I do experience bloating, but not like that ... everytime I eat anything solid, I do get nauseated and bloated for several hours (actually, I've noticed I kind of do a mini-dump ... sweats, flushed, nausea, bloating, etc.) ... I wonder if its a mixture of things that causes it, I'd love to know if you ever find out what the culprit is!! Karyn

next month will be a year for my surgery date .. Just in the last month have I experienced the bloating big time and lots of gas .. Never had it till now ... See the surgeon next month so I will find out whats up and normal .. I will let yall know what he says ...

i have that a lot after i eat and that's when i eat anything...but it goes away. don't know why but it's like right above my belly button swells up for awhile after it eat and my clothes get really uncomfortable.

My daughter, who has not had WLS, has this happen to her and she's been diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. I wonder if it's bacteria in your digestive system getting a little out of kilter. Do you think yogurt might help? Becky

Yes, with certain veggies, my belly will blow-up immediately. I mean blow up as in my waist band goes from fine to way too tight and I have to roll it down under my belly. It goes down after a while, though.
