For several months I have been getting very bloated and gassy. I would guess 2-3 days a week. It is a little painful but very uncomfortable. Sometimes you can hear my stomach making noises. In 4 months I have gained 9 lbs. The weird thing is, these last 4 months is when I have actually been eating better and exercising. I go to the gym 3 days a week for the last 3 months, yet am still gaining. (No, it's not muscle) My stomach looks like I am 6 months pregnant. I had an ablation about 6-7 years ago, so I do not have my period anymore. I am 38 and really getting frustrated with the weight gain since I am actually trying to lose it through diet and exercise. I have been to my doctor twice now. Basically told me to try Weight Watchers the first time and the last time gave me acid reducing pills to see if it helps. When I started them I did not gave the bloating gassy feeling for 4 days. However I have felt it the last 2 days in a row now. I have an appointment with my gyno next week.
Has anyone else had this and been diagnosed with anything? What do the doctors say?
Thank you for your help in advance. :)
