I've for a lot of weight to lose - about 4 stone

I've decided not to wait until the usual Monday and had a big old turn around on Wednesday

10,000 + steps every day plus bike rides. Loads of water and a healthier approach to food

My god though - it's a good job that dp and I are comfortable around one another because I am farting round the clock!

Beans as part of lunch then sprouts, cabbage, broccoli and peas as part of my tea Blush

Will it settle as my body gets used to it? It's not like I've never eaten veg / beans but consciously upping my veg and protein is new

😂 it will settle. A bit.
It's a combination of food and exercise so the intestines move more (or something lile that exercise always affects my digestive system). I can now eat bowl of the three veg you named and chicken and don't trumpet (much) after😂 There were times at the begining when it was all settling that I actually had to leave a room for example. And not for the sound! Probiotic stuff seems to help me. My DH not so much😂

It's also to do with your gut bacteria adjusting - when you increase fibre and whatnot, you will need more of some and less of others. It happened when I went vegan and took a couple of weeks to adjust to extra veg and beans then was fine.

Thank you! I woke myself up farting this morning Blush

I'm back at work next week which will be fun!

😂 it should settle by then. Problem is that you can't now mask the bottom noise machine by pretend coughing😂
