I really can't eat chinese food, asian, thai and that type of stuff, i do sometimes but whenever i do eat it, it messes me up. First my stomach kills me but i bloat like you wouldn't believe.
I get sharp pains and just such an uncomfortable feeling. After registering at furtonof's which by the way FH had a real problem with and while we were at the store turned to me and said OH This should be a LIW post, let them know your FH has a problem with fortunoff and i said if he has a problem to post it himself and he said he just might lol, anyawys back to the main point, we went to P.F. changs after bc cheesecake factory was a wait and we were starving.
I didnt even eat anything too heavy, i had the steamed shrimp dumplings and cantonese shrimp which came with snowpeas. When i left my house i had form fitting jeans and a form fitting sweater and i felt comfortable after we ate its like i went from flat to looking like im 4 months pregnant lol...today i am still extremely bloated, and its not like some girls i see say 'OMG i am so bloated' and i look at them like no you're really not, for me its all over, like even my waist and hips its insane...those sauces they use kill me.
does this happen to others and this badly? this is why i stay away from this food as much as i can
ETA: i know why im getting bloated, asking if anyone bloats this badly though lol

also if it just works out that fh wants chinese i will get steamed chicken with brown rice, NO sauce or seasoning... and add my own low sodium soy sauce or just eat it plain. it's boring but it doesn't bother my stomach.
well we were at P.F. Changs, we didnt order take out that i wont even eat at all, if he orders it at my house i just order from another place...they had no steamed chicken...i had steamed shrimp though with steamed snowpeas, it had a sauce but very little and light and i would wipe some of it off...however it was probably when i had the dumplings then i did dip them in

oh sorry, you did say you were out. that's a lot harder; some places you can ask for sauce on the side but not everyone will do it.
what was the issue with fortunoff? my sister keeps telling me to register there - probably b/c she did and she used to work there. not sure if i will or not though

Probably tons of salt. Soy Sauce is very high in sodium. Drink tons of water today and try to flush yourself out... I have the same problem. My jeans that fit me fine before the meal literally 'hurt' after the meal.... Key is water. Lots of it....

LOL dont worry its fine, nothing that will stop others from going...first fh got annoyed bc nothing was scanning which is true so it took away the fun of him scanning things, he had to enter everything manually...some things had no barcodes or skew number for us to enter, nobody would come over to help us lol. And some other issues he had lol...it was just funny that he said oh this should be a LIW post and called himself FH

Yeah ive been drinking tons of water and yeah it is the salt and i did have soy sauce and know that is the problem.
HAHAH i should've worded my post differently, i feel like an idiot like im asking why is this happening and dont know what salt does...i do know why its happening and what is causing it. If i bloated like normal people do then i would deal with it but this is just too much...its like i put on 10 pounds overnight

I can NOT eat Chinese or vegetarian Chinese foods. I always loved Zen Palate and Dojo in NYC and would always get so sick afterwards. I now only order steamed chicken and string beans like a dieting fool

haha. I know how it is. When we post on LIW, it's like a train of thought sometimes and I just type away..... Anyway, I hope you're feeling better soon esp. with Turkey Day tomorrow. Did you make the dip?

Re: Don't you hate when this happens
This actually happens to me every time I eat as well, I have a great gastroenterologist and I was diagnosed with gastroparesis which basically means I dont digest food well. He gave me aciphex which cuts down the acid and helps SOOOO much. FM me for further info Turns out it it so common.

Oh and i am making FH eat Indian food, he refuses to eat it and if i can eat food he wants to eat then he can do the same...i am gonna get it one day from this place by me, he said just not to tell him what it is before he eats it lol
