Belly bloating again?

Can anyone help me with this?
Lately (like in the last few days) I have really noticed that I have been bloated or even feeling bloated.I just finished my period,so I am not pregnat and I haven't eaten anything that would make me feel blown up.
The good thing is I haven't been eating as much b/c it is uncomfortable.
But the weird thing is, I got up the other morning and I was hungry.I decided to have 1/2 of a bagel, when I finished that bagel I felt huge! And stuffed.Off I went for a 14 kms run.Then it was lunch time, I made a ck sandwich and could only eat 1/2 of it b/c again, I felt like I had eaten a big turkey dinner.I didn't get hungry anymore until 4:30.That is really strange for me b/c I only last for a couple of hours before I get hungry.
Some more good news is that I have dropt 3 lbs.I don't know if that was 3 lbs of fluid I was holding unto or I have actually lost weight b/c I haven't been eating near as much as I normally do.
Yesterday was the same.I had a granola bar,the other 1/2 of the sandwich,a ck fajita and I rice krispie square.Thats not much for all day but I am not hungry and when I do eat I feel bloated,uncomfortable and stuffed.
This one is puzzling me b/c I have been like it all week.
Maybe I am a lost cause:) :+
Thanks,
Lori:)
 
My tummy gets bloated for no reason and also lasts for a week or more at a time. I kept a food diary a while back for a month, but I cant seem to figure out any foods that trigger the bloating. I stay away from salt and bread, but this only seems to slightly make a difference. The only thing that seems to slightly diminish the bloating and pain is sipping water all day and taking an aspirin when it gets unbearable. Any suggestions would be welcome.
 
This is a long shot but have you been eating flax seed? When I tried flax seed a few years ago my stomach blew up like a balloon - just a thought.

Make a dr's. appointment, better safe than sorry...
 
Do you suffer from IBS? Sounds like they symptoms I used to have. There's an IBS thread going in this forum. Maybe worth looking into.
