    When I have high fiber days (way over the 25g I aim for) I feel like this. I also feel bloated if I don't drink my 12 glasses of water.

    It's likely because you are bloated or your stomach is distended. It must be in the water, because I have been feeling that way all day. There are so many things that can cause it, but I know for me coffee usually helps relieve it as long as I don't have too much milk or cream added to it.

    I am right there with you!!! Actually, the scale has stayed the same. However, I do think the inches are starting to come off.

    I feel that way when I don't spread my calories out enough throughout the day. My stomach gets used to feeling hungry then it gets too full from a regular sized meal.

    I think I had this exact thought every time I passed the mirror today. For me I really do think I have gained weight in my stomach. Ive lost 5 pounds since not exercising due to health issues and I think its showing not a good way.
