I get so bloated nowadays.
Think it’s all the pizza and burgers that I have been eating. In my experience the following really fucks up my bloating:
- Carbs. All kinds of carbs.
- Beer.
- Eating too fast
- Stress
This has an adverse effect on my life. Always get stomach pains, get go properly, ruining my vacations etc.
So during a meal at the 98 Acres Cafe Restaurant I decided to start living a bloat free life!
Here are my tips:
# 1 – Fast in the morning
I don’t know if this is scientifically proven but when I fast I feel a lot lighter during the day.
I feel like because I am aging my digestive system just doesn’t work as fast as before. So when I don’t eat anything in the morning it gives my system a break and to catch up from all the meals I have eaten prior.
Works well for me!
# 2 – Eat more seafood, less carbs, less meats
Seafood doesn’t make me bloated.
Period.
Carbs makes me bloated. Meat sometimes makes me bloated.
Carbs I can cut out easily. Meat not so much. I had to literally force myself to order a fish for lunch at the 98 Acres restaurant.
- The fish that I order. Yes there was rice in the meal. No I did not touch the rice.
- Life boss meal. Is she punking me or something?! She’s order a full out carb meal! Arghhh life boss.
- We also got soup because that is low carb and it makes me feel good. The soup here was also very good!
- Life boss soup. Also very good.
It definitely felt light, but I just don’t get the same full feeling as meat.
Oh well. We are creatures of habit, so just need to create a new habit!
# 3 – Sleep early
The earlier I sleep. The less sick I get.
Even if I get 10 hours of sleep, if I sleep at 3AM I still feel like shit.
Also when I sleep early, I find my stomach is no longer bloated.
These are my 3 tips! Do you guys have any other advice? Let me know!
