Tight/Gas like feeling EVERY time I eat lately..WTH?
So...its been a long day...thank you all for posting your advice/thoughts/suggestions.
I felt some mild relieve late this afternoon but it quite quickly returned after having literally 4 small bites of chicken w/ a little avocado on top (my dinner). I was intstantly full so I stopped hoping/thinking this pain WAS from potentially overeating. My tightness/bloated/crampy feeling returned almost immediately and the burbing has been NON-STOP!!!! Feels kinda like heartburn too? So I took 2 antacids, which have done absolutely nothing. The pain got worse at one point, and has subsided a little but still very much constantly there. Nothing seems to make it better.
I did make an appointment to see my general doctor Thursday a.m. for a full physical but I am leary that will yield ANY results.
I have to go out of town for a wedding this weekend and I feel like poop...no, wait I just wish I would poop. HA! I haven't since Sunday but I figured that was just b/c of all the protein I'd been eating lately.
Sigh...maybe I'll feel better in the morning...for a little while. til I eat something.

I'm sorry, I wrote my reply before reading through all the others. I hope everything goes okay with the doc and they can figure out what's going on. Feel better!

I've been getting that a LOT lately. It seems like every time I eat, I walk away feeling belchy, like I have a brick in my pouch and feeling slightly sick.
After a few times, I realized I must be missing my "full" signal and overeating. So I started scaling back my portions and only eating half my meal at a time, whether I feel full or not, and the feeling went away.
Good luck, I hope it's that easy of a solution for you. It's weird because usually I can eat quite a bit (relatively speaking, for a bypasser) so it was strange to suddenly feel such restriction, but there it is.
