Stopping Smoking and feeling bloated? -

Stopping Smoking and feeling bloated? -

I stopped smoking 6 weeks ago and after the 1st week I have become really uncomfortable because of a bloated feeling all the time. I have not changed my eating habits. I am not eating more - in fact I am watching what I eat. So does anyone have any ideas what it could be? ?Could it be anything to do with Metabolism? By the way apart from this I feel great!!!!there is an incredibly long list of unusual temporary symptons that could occur when you quit. I didn-t have any ,but they are listed on the nhs site , along with e freephone numberStopping smoking can cause you to have a temporary overload of the stress hormone cortisol. Cortisol makes you gain weight. Don-t worry, when your brain has fully recovered from the withdrawal, your hormones will normalize and you-ll lose the extra weight.it could be you-re body natural reaction not having all that smoke in your body. it-s probably compensating for the smoke with gas. Drink lots of water with lemon. and congrats for quitting smoking!! :)This is probably normal, but since it has persisted for more than a month I suggest consulting a doctor.smoking actually reduces your appetite and helps you lose weight but its still bad for u...eat fiberYou are drinking too much wine.cut down on salt
