Hey guys hoping i could get some help with this but I'm a 20 year old who's fairly active and always on my feet so that means I carry around snacks with me. I have my normals meals as well but problem is I've been noticing every time I go just a few hours without eating when im hungry, I get super bloated when I do finally eat something and I know its a normal thing to get bloated after eating but this is more of an uncomfortable bloat and it leaves me puffy. This usually only happens when I wait an hour or a while to eat when I'm hungry which is why I need snacks with me but sometimes I don't always them with me so I have to deal with the hunger. anyone else experience this?

    If I go for too long without eating for some reason I know I need to slowly sip a full glass of water first before eating. Gulping it too quickly adds air to the gut, too, so I take it slow even if I'm really hungry. I have IBS though, so not sure if this is helpful or not.
