    Default need to get rid of bloating fast?

    I have been INSANELY bloated since last Friday and I feel like I've tried everything to get rid of it-- I've been drinking a ton of water, cut out all salty foods, been drinking dandelion tee, I've even tried using diuretics and laxatives, nothing is working. And I'm talking serious bloat, like 2-3 inch increase.

    I have a photo-shoot on Friday, I am getting professional photos taken for my escort website and I'm spending 360 pounds on this shoot, or $600, I scheduled it a week ago and I have already paid a deposit. These photos are going to be up on all my profiles for the next year so I need them to look good. The last thing I want is to be bloated on the day of this shoot!

    All I can think at this point is going on a two-day juice cleanse because nothing else is working. All I can think is that it's some kind of PMS thing, because my period is almost 7 weeks late (I took a pregnancy test it's negative) but it's not going to come by Friday as I'm on BC. I don't know why else I would be this bloated. Does anyone have any other advice?

    Other options could be eating an extreme ketogenic diet (not sure what your diet is right now), juice or water fast (only do water if you can laze about throughout it. you need to take it really easy on it) a couple days, and sit in a sauna to detox...that's all I can think of that might help. Good luck, chica! I hope it goes down in time.

    edit: Forgot to mention, if you've never water fasted, definitely do research before trying it! And make sure you refeed properly after (: Just need to take care of your body including digestive system.

    I don't have a fast fix your body that won't throw it into more of a tailspin (i.e., more bloat or other GI symptoms). Be careful of not dehydrating yourself, which (depending on what's going on) could cause more puff.

    When I started two probiotics (one for yeast/fungus, and another for general) and when I removed a number of allergens from my diet, GI issues healed for me, and even periods got easier.

    (FWIW, both the probiotics and the diet changes were supervised by my doc and tracked with blood work; one tested finally had a negative ANA count - that's how much of a diff there was for me).

    Are you taking a lot of caffeine? That can sometimes mess with both hormonal and GI issues.

    Doing a juice fast, an epsom salt bath and taking a probiotic will help (sometime drinking too much of water won't help due to water retention and taking laxatives etc can up set your tummy and add to the bloating ).

    Laxatives can sometimes mess up your system big time, making the problem far worse. Especially if you are a frequent user.
    Have you tried psyllium husks, or Miralax? Also make sure you don't overdo it with water.

    Cutting out carbs may help a lot also. We are all built differently, but those are the things that work for me. I hope you find a solution and have a great photo shoot!

    Sometimes when I hang out with my boyfriend too much, I'll spend like three days consuming nothing but Midori cocktails and overly-rich hors d'oeuvres. I remedy the ensuing horrendous bloating by taking 5mg of Adderall with two glasses of lemon water. Okay, obviously, Adderall is not intended to treat bloating so proceed with lots of caution (even though 5mg is a teeensy-tiny dose) but I swear it works so much better than fiber, dandelion tea, probiotics, etc.

    It makes me look like I spent the past three days doing crunches while juice fasting, instead of eating like Louis XVI. And it's the only thing that will fix PMS bloating for me. Is Adderall something you can get in the UK? I think it might be less available there. Don't get deported!

    Otherwise, I would just do the juice fast and take some No-Doz.

    I'm watching the doctors and they had a women sit in a hot bath of Epsom salts. They measured her after and she lost a ton of inches. Not sure how much because I'm on here and not paying a lot of attention. But definitely a quick fix.

    Adderrall is known to cause bloating and constipation., I know I'm prescribed it and only take it when I travel and my sisters an addict and was addicted to it for years.

    Sweat, sweat, sweat, sweat, sweat! When fighters I know are cutting weight for fights they spend a lot of time sweating in various ways to get rid of lots of water.

    Yeah, the Adderall is terrible advice ... It won't do anything for bloating.

    Laxatives can worsen bloating also. If it were me, I would go on a juice fast until your shoot.

    Is it too late the reschedule the shoot? I know it's cutting it a bit close since it's already Wednesday/Thursday, but the photog might be willing to move up your shoot if you get in touch asap.

    I'm not surprised Aderall helps with bloating actually because it's a stimulant, it's gonna make you pee and poop. But I have no access to it anyway.

    I woke up a BIT better today, gonna eat my last meal tonight and do a juice cleanse tomorrow, two epsom salt baths and hope for the best... I asked to reschedule and he said no.

    Normally I would just let something like this pass naturally but the photoshoot is making me stressed....

    If you have GNC there you'd be better off going and getting a stimulant there with a diuretic. I take fastin when I'm taking a break from Adderall and my stomache is flat as a board from it.

    I dunno, I used to abuse various stimulants in college (Aderall being one of them) and they always made my stomach super flat-- opiates constipate the fuck out of you, stimulants, well, stimulate your body! But I guess everyone is different? I wouldn't take Adderall anyway as I don't even drink caffeine it makes me all jittery and antsy and I hate it.

    I've been taking pills designed for water retention-- would a diuretic be stronger?

    Off topic but sometimes I think I must be the only person on the planet who didn't use Aderall during college.

    I just take it now to get me through shifts til 7am when I travel. Since I can't get out of bed most days. 1 OR 2 wouldn't do anything anyways. There are things at GNC designed for people who compete to shred up and get rid of bloat. Do you have on there you can go to? Ask them what you can take for a few days before to help. Fastin I noticed the first few days I take it makes me look really thin. Though my weight runs between 112-115 sometimes I look bigger, more bloated. Like now. HAHA.

    Just FYI, Fastin is phenylethylamine which is functionally the same thing as amphetamine. It was also apparently banned because it additionally contains DMAA:

    Anyway. I'm glad you're feeling less bloated Audrey! If you're still not happy when your shoot rolls around, don't forget you can do crunches and suck it in! Weighted ab exercises won't correct the bloat, but looking defined is a good way to trick the eye into seeing "skinniness." Plus -- what about photoshop?!

    The new does not contain that. The old stuff did ( which was just like Adderall) they banned it because people in the military and athletes were taking it and testing positive for meth...

    Your right it does still contain that. Methylaphlexaline was what they took out. Phenylethalamine is the same effect as easting chocolate btw.

    Btw dmaa is not in fastin anymore. That was methylaflexalin not phenylethylamine. The later was the replacement and is found in chocolate. The first was taken out a few years ago and is an amphetamine the later is not .

    So not eating did the trick!

    Couldn't wear any of the clothes I wanted for the shoot cause of the flood in my flat, and hated the color of my hair, but at least my stomach was flat...
