  • I struggle with this sometimes too :frown: so would be intrigued to hear people's suggestions!
  • When you say Bloated, is it after eating a meal or in general? Look at whether dairy or gluten affects how you feel try to cut one out for a couple of days and see how you go, you may be intolerant to either, worth a start. Try to drink 4 8oz glasses of water a day this may improve digestive transit. best of luck :-)

    I sometimes will drink an herbal tea~ like peppermint or ginger.
  • The tea is a great suggestion and it helps with digestion also. I keep water pills on hand for times when it gets to be too much. I only take them as a last ditch effort and for only one day.

    Make sure you eat plenty of fibre and natural foods-no processed rubbish! Youll feel 100% better.

  • Definitely pound the herbal tea! =)

    Also you may want to watch your sodium intake, as that can make me puffy!
