Vikki27 answered Wednesday August 23 2006, 5:39 pm: The first thing I would like to say is that a bloated stomach is in no way an indication of an eating disorder.
However, as someone who suffers from bloating very badly (it also makes me feel very sick), I can say it sounds as though there may be some sort of digestive problem there. Now, this could just be helped by taking a probiotic containing something called every day, like an Actimel, Activia or another form of yoghurt/yoghurt drink. There have been a lot of studies carried out into these and a large percentage of people suffering from bloat have found that a probiotic helps significantly.
The other possibility is that you might suffer with a food intolerance or Irritable Bowel Syndrome. However, these are both most commonly accompanied with other symptoms, such as diarrhoea or constipation and bowel cramps.
Although I can say this from experience and know the symptoms well, I would stongly recommend that if you find you suffer from such problems, you should speak to your doctor for a formal diagnosis and treatment as required. Unfortunately, there really isn't a lot you can do to ease the symptoms until some form of diagnosis has been made, although I would recommend drinking a lot of water when it happens, as this can help to ease the symptoms in a number of cases.

You need to eat properly and drink a lot of water and exercise..screw not eating..thats what makes your tummy bloat in the first place..take it from me i know!!! Im also having some trouble with this too but my boyfriend makes me eat. I hope I helped.
