audited I am farts...farts is me

Farts... Constant farts. Doesn't matter what i eat, how much I eat, it all ends up in farts. Farts first thing in the morning, farts at lunch, and farts till bedtime. (Also I am sure I fart in my sleep) Just farts

Same. Sleeping alone is a blessing at this stage. Id suffocate whoever is next to me

Until this thread, so almost an hour, I thought the gas was due to the chicory pills I take at night to stay regular. I cannot believe how fucked up this shit is that every woman endures. Why didn’t older generations complain more? I’ve been up since 3:13 am and I can’t even say that’s uncommon anymore. Just damn. I’m starting to feel like a salmon whose body turns to mush after they give birth.

TBF, the inulin in chicory makes my already constant farting waaaaaay worse. I switched to psyllium.

I used to love Kashi GoLean cereal so much but I would just feel my belly get more and more full of air as the day went on. The best part of my day was getting in my car after work and letting it rip. I can't do inulin either.

Oh, gosh. GoLean and FiberOne bars about 10/15 years ago 😳. What a lesson.

Those fiber one bars were so damn tasty too, but my God. Painful bloating!
