I binged alittle late night before last on kettle chips and two lean pockets. Well, it's now two nights later and I am still super bloated! How long does it take to get rid of bloat from too much salt? Does anyone know? I drank lots of water yesterday. I haven't drunk a whole lot of water today, but yesterday I did.

some people recommend drinking water with lemon juice in it. Have you tried that?0

For me it can take a few days. Watch out for sodium and carbs!0

Whenever I get super bloated whether it is because of TOM or just having a cheat day I make this recipe called "sassy water"
The recipe calms your GI tract and banishes bloating!!!! and it's pretty easy to make.
• 2 liters water (about 8 ½ cups)
• 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
• 1 medium cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
• 1 medium lemon, thinly sliced
• 12 small spearmint leaves.
Then you just let it sit over night and drink all of the water the next day.
Last time a used this (which was last week) I lost 3 out of my 4lbs of water weight within 24 hours then lost the other the next day (because I was still peeing all the water... lol)
Hope this helps!0 -
thanks @Babybirdganz! i am going to try this!0
