Is there something wrong with me?

[PARKER-911]

Hey everyone I was just wondering if anyone could help me figure out if theres something wrong with me and if so what.
When I wake up in the morning or if I havent eaten in awhile (a real long while) my stomach is flat as a board but all I have to do is drink a glass of water or have my egg white and cream of wheat breakfast and I now look like I did when I was 4 months pregnant! I'm 100% serious right now I don't know why my stomach gets so big and does this mean that in order to have a flat stomach I can't eat?
If anybody could help me or has any suggestions I would really really appreciate them.

Could be a food allergy causing the bloat... I'd take out the cream of wheat and substitute another carb source to see how that affects you

It happens no matter what I eat though. It's even when I just drink something.

If this happens even when you drink water, I have a feeling it is all in your head. I need to see pics of said "4 month pregnant" look after drinking water.

This happens to me as well when I eat stuff... but the water thing baffles me. Try chewing some beano or take a digestive enzyme before you eat.

Do an experiement - drop wheat, flour and dairy from your diet for 2 weeks and take note as to how you feel and report back.

Agreed...

I also think Vel & Sarge have the right idea here, I did this with Oatmeal WAY back when & realized my stomach had a bit of an allergy when I ate it. And I COOKED my oats, nice & mushy. Same thing MAY hapen with brown rice from time to time. Never touched the cream of wheat though. I still enjoy them. I love them

No one on here knows WHO you are or can see you face. Take a pic of you belly before & after if you want opinions to make sure it's not just, like DG said, "in your head."

I already ate this morning so I will post pictures tommorrow. I swear it's not in my head though because even my husband was commenting on it yesterday. He told me that is so wierd how your stomach does that and he even said maybe I nees the digestive enzymes or maybe I just have a little belly. But then I was thinking about it today and maybe my stomach muscles are still streched out from when I was pregnant and I just need to tighten them back up and get them strong again. What do you guys think about that?

Can't imagine. You say when you go a long time w/o food - I mean, when I wake up in the morning I look great abs-wise, but as soon as I eat , it bags out some. Maybe you need digestive enzymes.

IS it up high in your stomach or lower in your intestinal area - the bloat that is.
