hey guys,

I need some help and I know i have come to the right place. I love this site. okay, banded 5 months ago. have noticed the last two months, two weeks out of the month, my stomach is so bloated. i mean, bigger than ever. almost as big as when i was 8 months pregnat with my son. I am losing weight so not sure why this is happening. do you guys have any suggestions? has this happened to you? my stomach is not hard really, but some nights, it does hurt when it is extended out. i feel like i am on the verge of exploding. i don't drink soda's. how can i get this bloatedness to go away and stay away. thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Hi!

If i were in your position i would go to your doctor, especially from the size you say your stomach is bloated to. Is it when you eat or drink specfic things?

yeah, i am going to my surgeon tomorrow. it is not bloated in the morning as much as at night. and yes, i am keeping a food log on what makes it bloat. last night i had a chicken enchalidia. that made me bloat. i just want to see if anyone else is having issues with water weight or stomach bloat. need some suggestions. i know, drink lots of water, log your food, exercise. etc. i just want to know if this is happening to anyone else. and ladies, it seems like i carry water weight one week before and one week after my monthly. never had that issue before either.
