I've had an awesome start, losing 8 pounds in 4 days, but I've really been having a tough time with these gaseous stomach pains I've been getting. Any clue as to what incurs this? Lack of fiber maybe? Need some serious help with this one.

Re: Stomach pains
I agree, post a menu...

Re: Stomach pains
I agree about posting a menu. That could help us see if there are foods that trigger gas. In the meantime, you can get Gas-X at the store...it helps by breaking up big gas bubbles into smaller ones so they can pass more easily (rather than be trapped and cause discomfort).~Lisa

Re: Stomach pains
Are you eating your veggies? Which ones?

Re: Stomach pains
Typical of the 5 days I've been in:
2-egg omelette w/ cheddar
1.5 cup salad w/ cheddar
1/2 Chicken breast
1.5 cup salad w/ cheddar
1/2 Chicken breast
Four ounces of Cheddar spread around that plan. Romaine lettuce for salad. I think it's a lack of fiber, I went ahead and bought Centrum Silver and non-chewable fiber supplemants.Comment
