it is confirmed
if i have flour and/or sugar i get sick.
i was so bloated for so long and for so much of the time that i didn't even notice it.
i had been eating almost no flour or sugar for quite some time and was feeling great.
yesterday, i decided to have the leftover pasta with veggies... i then topped it off with dessert: a couple of cookies and two small chocolates.
i started to feel crappy at bedtime. woke up this morning feeling like sh!t and the scale said +5 pounds. i was bloated for a good part of the morning.
**insert sad music and sad keanu**

Re: it is confirmed
Its not just you.
Carbohydrates bloat you.
Hence why they are called Carbo HYDRATES.
I forget the exact ratios/numbers but every gram of carbohydrates require so many grams of water to process.
When you start cutting back carbs your initial weight loss is mainly water weight from releasing all that bloat.
my issue is I don't care. I will eat them and pay the price of suffering later.
That pizza/pasta/cookie is usually worth it to me. 
Hence why I feel like garbage and suffer with stomach pains, gas and bloat 95% of my life!

Yeah flour and sugar are really awful.
Not that I don't eat it because I eat it like I have 3 assholes, don't get me wrong. But yeah, it's terrible for you and I do pay the price with feeling bloated all the time and just feeling like crap.
My husband lost over 100 lbs by cutting all that crap out of his diet. It's insane.

wow! good for him!
my nephew lost about 150 on keto, so i've seen it's powers.
i refuse to give up rice, so that's not going to fly with me lol
but... i am seriously seeing the difference with regards to flour and sugar. i know i won't go completely gluten and sugar free, but this is mindblowing.

yeah you don't have to go full keto to see results.
Just cutting back the sugar is really the key.
Sugar is super addicting though so it's really hard.
Like physically addicting where you feel you need it like a drug.
Another thing he stays away from is any processed foods. He pretty much eats all whole foods not too much prepackaged and nothing inflammatory like soy , camola oils etc
