Does anyone else have specific jeans they wear for when they go out to eat? Extra lil bit of room to allow for the food baby 🤰🏼✨ One thing I used to really struggle with was accepting myself when I was bloated!! I get EXTREME bloating (I think you can probably tell🤭) and can sometimes look even bigger than a woman 9 months pregnant 🤰🏻 But throughout my journey of learning to love myself REGARDLESS of anything, this also meant learning to love and accept my bloated body, no matter how uncomfortable it made me feel in my skin🫶🏽 A few years ago, I used to take a big jacket out with me so that when it inevitably happened, I could hide it. Fast forward to now, I couldn’t care less!! Everyone bloats, maybe not to the same extreme, but it is normal for your body to fluctuate 🫶🏻 There are SO many things that can influence your body bloating, including: 1. Food Intolerances 2. Fibre in your diet 3. Menstrual cycle 4. Salt in your diet 5. Sweeteners in diet 6. Fizzy drinks 7. Gum 8. How fast you eat/drink 9. Volume of food/drink 10. Drastic diet change 11. Supplements Bloating is okay. Enjoying yourself through food is okay. Your belly being a bit too full is O K A Y!! The next time you bloat, instead of covering it or feeling any kind of guilt, please remember - it happens to everyone. Some people literally just bloat more than others!! Nobody cares if you finish the day with a bigger belly than you started it!! It’s alllll in your head I promise you🫶🏻 #bodypositive #bodypositivity #bloating #bloatingisnormal #bloat #bodypositivemovement #selflove #elmint - @elmint
