I'm not exactly sure, but I think a good way to reduce bloating it to cut out sodium and caffine out of your diet for a bit and drink lots of water.





Yea even diet sodas too. Basically, anything bubbly, caffeinated, tea, soda, carbonated water, juice drinks, etc. should be cut out. Drink a boat load of water and it should subside soon. Oh yea try to eat clean fresh foods that are only from the meat and fruit and vegetable isle. This way you try to avoid most sodium in processed foods.

When i'm feeling really bloated and fat. I drink super dieter's tea. It's great warning only drink before bed and stay home the next day or close to a toilet. It will make you go to bathroom but it get's all the fat,grease,and nasty junk out of your body, and it may make your tummy cramp a little before you go to the bathroom but you will feel 100 pound's lighter after your done. Also it's something I only drink once every other month. you can get it at grocery stores or herberal markets or gnc.

my hormonal fluid retention didn't budge till i changed the medicine causing it. i seriously doubt any other remedy will change it....




Yasmin makes me feel like a bloated whale...and it's supposed to have this effect less than other pills?
Eating pineapple and drinking parsley or dandelion tea is reported to lessen fluid retention.

I had my period last week and like always, I ate everything in sight and hardly moved from my bed at all.
Now it's been a week since my period ended and I'm bloated like an obese, beached whale. Not only have I gained 2kgs, but it seems like most of the weight has gone straight to my stomach area. I'm actually afraid I might be pregnant even though my period was on time and came out as much as usual because apparently some women can still get their period while pregnant.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?!?!?!
Herbal teas- fennel, chickweed, chamomile or peppermint for bloat.
It's probably the Pill hormones, I was pudged out until I gave up on the Pill & now I'm not bloated anymore. Have you tried Loestrin? It was the best Pill I ever used, no side effects.
Edit to add- aries is right, Super Dieter's Tea will work but don't overdo it, I am too scared to try it again. It's only a "Band-Aid" fix.
two weeks ago i ate my killer food .. pizza.. That stuff just makes me sick and I wonder why i give into it.. I puff up like a balloon and it seems to last like days.. so I walked over to my CVS afterwards in hopes of a dream pill .. im not big on any diet pills but found this stuff and saw the ingredients were just herbs even though some herbs can be bad it seemed natural enough .. I took the 6 like they said before bed.. and I slep wonderfully and woke up feeling really good.. and it moved things not like a laxative.. about midday I pooed... Ive been taking them now each night for a couple weeks.. will stop when Im out .. and feel really good and it helped get me back on track.. the day after the pizza I was back to normal with no cravings.. able to get back to my regular high vegetable diet which works best for me.. http://www.walgreens.com/store/produ...id=prod3198113



Sooo it's been a couple of days since I last posted about being bloated. Nothing's changed. I'm still feeling like crap and I've actually gone up another 2kgs, so that's a total of 4kg up from my original weight.
WHAT THE HELL?
It seems like most of this weight is around my belly too. Am I pregnant or what? I'm really scared now. Someone hold me...![]()
