protein drinks give me the same problems as you so i drink a "Boost" drink in the am instead. wal mart, target abd grocery stores have them near the instant breakfast. choc , strawberry and a too rich vanilla, full of vitamins and yummy !

also lots of water, tea and "propel" brand water which has no cals no carbs no sugar, just taste good.

Oh man it just :backs up doesn't it.. it causes me to have headaches until Im able to have a bm . somewhere I read to take benefiber.

Horrible! I have to drink Milk of Magnesia sometimes just to go. I usually can tell when:

My weight is going up

I feel bloated

Bad gas pains

M.O.M. usually solves the problem.

just eat some sugar free chocolates like SF reese peanut butter cups... 5 of them are only 1 net carb. anytime I start feeling constipated I go to walgreens and get some and it straightens me out.. plus they are delish!

Glad to know it's not just me! I burp ALL the time! I feel like I have air trapped in my belly and it's uncomfortable. I have tried everything. I even take a GasX everyday. I'm glad I have been married forever, I could not imagine what kind of date I would be belching everywhere everytime I eat!
