If you’re bloated, it’s really easy to assume the answer is hiding in your diet.
You start thinking…
“Maybe it’s dairy.”
“Maybe it’s gluten.”
“Maybe I need to cut out more FODMAPs.”
“Maybe I should stop eating ___.”
Before you know it, your list of “safe” foods is getting smaller and smaller, while your bloating is still there 🤰
❌️ Bloating doesn’t automatically mean you need to eliminate another food.
Sometimes, the more helpful question isn’t “What should I take out?”
👉 It’s: “What might be missing from my foundation?”
🎈 Are you eating enough?
🎈 Are you eating consistently?
🎈 Are your meals balanced?
🎈 Are you giving yourself enough time to actually digest?
🎈 What’s going on with your sleep, stress, movement and bowel habits?
And perhaps most importantly…
🎈 Has trying to fix your gut started to make your life smaller?
I don’t want you to spend the next year making your diet more and more restrictive in the hope that THIS will finally be the thing that fixes your bloating.
I want you to understand your body, build a supportive foundation, and feel confident around food again.
🫶 Before you eliminate another food, take a step back and ask yourself the 7 questions in this post.
🏷 Save this for the next time you find yourself wondering, “What should I cut out next?”
