if I had known about "gas" as a side effect of quitting, I would have stopped years ago !! My wife is not happy but finally I can get some revenge !!

Oh My, thank the stars that I am not the only one... I an just about finished day 3 of my quit and I am tooting away like a trumpet.... I just can't stop. I thought I was having problems with my IBS again (I have a very bloated gut) but it couldn't be cause I was not in pain....
I just have gas, by the gallon.... I should get my other half to attach a pipe to my butt and supply the oil and gas industry in Aberdeen (where I live).. I'm sure I could cut the UK gas prices by about 50%.. LOL
Hopefully it will pass soon, I know it's not patches or gum as I am using neither, my diet is pretty much the same as before.... WHat could it be???

Increse dairy, decrese fiber, Dannielle? Nuh UH!! Serious?? LOL
I have been told my entire life that dairy agrivates IBS and fiber helps it.
BTW you guys.. i have loved this thread! I didn't notice the gas a whole lot - basically because I have bene gassy ever since I got pregnant the last time and it's never really went away.

OOO KK... I didn't think it was for me.. That was the first i've posted in here, but i did think it was for IBS, so thanks for clearing that up for me. BTW.. just so you know, i wasn' trying to undermine what you said - i was just suprised. :) I was always told that fiber would cure what ailed you in regards to your intetines.. even diareah.
LOL LOL LOL Thanks so much for the laughs and the knowledge! Good to know. Correen

Its not a fun part either :( -quite embarrassingactually, but found that fruit and regular proper breakfast together with exercise seems to regulate motions better and its important to keep the fluids up too.
