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 !

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!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
