    Default Any tips to beat bloat???

    After a little hiatus from dancing I decided to start back next week.
    My problem is, although Im in good shape, toned, tanned, and seeing great results from fish oil/b 12 the one thing I have an issue with is... my bloated belly.

    I LOVE seltzer water.I dont drink soda, diet or otherwise, I will drink an occasional sugar free red bull, but mainly I drink seltzer. Oh and plain H20 (altho i prefer my seltzer).
    I just started drinking it a few months ago but I definitely noticed it bloats my stomach(due to carbonation ill assume).
    I also LOVE beans. Lima beans and broccoli. I eat them a few times a week despite the gassiness.

    I start back next wednesday so I have about 6 days to flatten this tummy.
    I know ill have to stop the seltzer,and beans but my question is::
    what else can i do? do water pills(diurex??) work for bloat?
    Or is that only if your PMSing?
    Any other tips to get rid of bloat, quick?

    Side note:I usedto have issues with constipation so thats why i added beans and broccoli to my diet. It really does help to keep me regular and though it bloats me, I have noticed weight loss with my diet changes.

    It's wierd I was planning on dancing next week cause I have a school break but I was so sad because I thought I gained some weight...nope! just bloat cause I've been eating lots of carbs again because school is shitty x_x. I just started drinking a lot of water and eating a lot less carbs (have some for breakfast, a few at lunch, and none at dinner, but make sure your dinner has a lot of proteing so you stay full and don't eat late at night!), more coffee and green tea, and more veggies and my tummy is *almost* flat again after a few days

    skip the seltzer. the veggies won't make as big of a difference as the carbonation will. plus seltzer has a tiny bit of added sodium right? cut down on salt and increase flat water intake
