Gave Up Smoking And Gained Ounces. Why Am I Bloated? What Can I Do?
Good evening, I am 45 years old female. It s a 1 month that I gave up smoking . It s about 2 months that I gained 5 kilo s and I feel bloated all the time. That s why I gave up smoking. It does matter what I eat I feel bloated. I am allergic to yeast . I eat heathly and fresh foods. I don t know what to do. What blood test should I do or what should I do in general. PLEASE HELP…..
It appears that you suddenly gained a lot of weight two months back. In my opinion, you should get yourself checked for thyroid hormone abnormalities, which can be done by a blood test. You should see a doctor to get yourself assessed for any other reasons of weight gain and for a complete check-up. It is good that you have given up smoking. Bloating can be due to both tobacco withdrawal and thyroid abnormalities.
Hope this has been of help. Best wishes.
