@gleefullsupps: I unbuttoned my jeans the moment I got home every single day. Not because I overate. Sometimes I barely ate anything. But by afternoon my stomach was so distended and painful I couldn't stand anything touching it. I looked pregnant. Genuinely. Strangers asked once or twice. That was a low point. The pain was real too. Not just discomfort. A tight, cramping, full feeling that wouldn't go away no matter what I did. I cut out gluten. Cut out dairy. Tried elimination diets. Took every probiotic on the market. Drank gallons of water. Nothing. The bloating came back every single day like clockwork. I thought I'd developed IBS or some kind of food intolerance. I was terrified of eating. My doctor said: "This kind of chronic bloating in perimenopause is hormonal. Fluctuating estrogen and progesterone directly affect your gut motility and fluid retention. It's not what you're eating." My gut was reacting to my hormones, not my food. No elimination diet in the world could fix that. I started taking GleeFull's Over 30 Hormone Support to stabilize the hormonal fluctuations causing the inflammation. Within two weeks the daily bloating started reducing. Within a month I stopped unbuttoning my jeans the second I walked through the door. If you're constantly bloated and nothing dietary helps, stop blaming your food. Check your hormones.
