    Roasted Dandilion Tea is great to get rid of bloat- you can get it at the natural section of most grocery stores. Just make sure to prepare it according to packaging directions (steep for about 10-15 mins). Also, if its PMS related, Midol Complete is WONDERFUL for taking away bloat, fatigue and all other PMS related symptoms. Good luck.

    Dandelion root or cranberry are natural diuretics that will help you flush out . . . just be careful because you don't want to be dehydrated and on the river. Be sure to keep your fluids up.

    Keep your sodium low and keep drinking water! Also I mix a drop of peppermint oil into my water if I am feeling bloated or drink peppermint tea (also a great iced!).

    All great advice, but most of all... forget about it and have fun! No one is going to judge you as harshly as you judge yourself. Everyone is going to be too busy enjoying themselves to notice if your belly is a centimeter smaller or larger than it is today. :wink:
