Always a nice topic to end the week. In short for those of you who don't know the story I went from not training nor eating well for best part of 2 years to getting my shit together (no pun intended) 5 weeks ago and been very good since then.
Diet has been pretty much consistent throughout but something I have noticed in the last 2 weeks is that I am getting horrific wind which sometimes comes out and sometimes doesn't. Leaving it almost impossible to eat due to bloat. Carbs are certainly not high and nor is salt. I have noticed this over the past 2 weeks so before I started back on gear and before I swapped my whey protein supplier. so those can be ruled out. At first it was nothing worth mentioning but seems to be getting worse
Its as if my stomach is having trouble breaking food down and I end up feeling like an air balloon. This can go on for hours and hour and be very uncomfortable. Seems to be starting earlier and then at bed time I get horrific flatulence that can go on for ages. Several unsuccessful trips to the toilet later and the flatulence and burping still continues. When I finally do manage a crap Its like an explosion going off and I usually have to sit there for 20 minutes, return to bed then go back for leg 2 in 30 mins time or after, sometimes a third! The amount of stuff (wind, urine, food, faeces) which comes out of me is not natural and very unpleasant. I have actually been eating a little less these past few days as a result. I could understand if I was getting this early on as there was a fairly sharp change to diet but it was over 3 weeks before the change.
I'm not looking for a definitive answer or cure but are there any digestive enzyme outs there which have proven worth? Most be some kind of problem with breaking down and processing my food. All joking aside its really not pleasant at all, especially for the GF at night but I literally cannot stop farting for hours before I finally go and they are rancid, even by my own standards!
Any suggestions? I'm going to a pals tonight I imagine and don't want to be bloated and end up blocking his shitter! Don't want something that's gonna give me that shits. something that restores normalises, for want of a better description. Dreading squats today for obvious reasons. Small breakfast. Give it time to digest then go in about an hour before training.
Only thing I can think of is that maybe I am using too much whey powder. Sometimes I have 3 scoops a day but I wouldn't say that's massively excessive and again never caused problems before. This was actually one of the reasons I swapped suppliers as I wondered if my body was starting to reject the MP stuff in some way as strange as that seems. Different protein, same problem
