WARNING...TMI JOURNAL....KIND OF NASTY.........still reading? ok well u asked for it....holy puddin pies...i have two words for all of u.....TRAPPED GAS....hurts like a frikin sonofabitch!....i was like hunched over at work today because it was too painful to stand up straight...so i walked around like a little old lady...miss karen could tell that something was wrong so she was like miss melissa is ur stomach ok? i was like no it hurts (didnt say it was trapped gas...i just let her think that it was part of my being sick these past few days...less embarassing that way)....so she was nice and supportive and had me sit and record things while she pottied the kids.......well...my stomach which is normally concave...is slightly distended...and i feel so fat and so bloated...god i have never wished for a giant fart as much as i am right now....when i got home from work, i just laid in the fetal position and napped so that i wouldnt feel the pain....i cant tell my family about it because i can just see it now...they will relate it to my ED and tell me that it's probably kwashiorkor setting in....cuz we all know that in their eyes, all of my problems stem from my ED!......i found myself wondering if it was due to all of the fiber i eat...in the 460 calories i managed to consume yesterday, i got 110% of my daily fiber needs....but i always have alot of fiber in my diet....and this doesnt happen....so i dont think its that....hope this passes!!i went to my bff's bday party tonight ....she shares this day with her aunt and her mom...so they always have a 3 way party....i love her family...and they love me...god it's nice to be in a room full of people who adore u....i dont get that at home anymore....and tracy's dad got her buffalo sabres tickets so that they can go to a game together....god, i hope that she never takes for granted the fact that her dad wants to spend time with her....cuz right now, im just having to be grateful when my dad decides to say soemting to me...even if it is to blame me for something

Honey, I\'m sorry you\'re dealing with such pain. I can understand how you\'re feeling, not just physically, but emotionally. The only advice I can give is to mix a little baking soda in some water. It\'s not the best tasting thing, but it can help. God bless you and get better soon. Hugs~Steph
ughhhh.that feels horrible.i\'m so srry.
I am so sorry you are in so much pain. Just try to get into a comfortable position and wait it out. In time it will pass. I know this is not very helpful but its all I got. It surprising that you mention kwashiorkor. It was on my midterm, but right now I cant remember a t hing about it. I am so stupid! Anyways, I hope you feel better soon honey.
That sucks, but the way you wrote about it in the first 3 lines made me laugh. You\'re very funny. Try peppermint tea. :)
Hope you\'re feeling better soon... I know the feeling of trapped gas all too well. haha
ohhh that sounds horrible and painfull
and it must have sucked to have to be at work like that
i dont even work with kids so i cant imagine how annoying that must have been
the day must have dragged on forever
you can actually go to the chemist (drug store over there i think ) - although i know you prob. dont want to do that cus of bfs parents but ill let you know anyway hehe
so you can go to the pharmacist and get charcol tablets and it absorbs all the i dunno stuff and helps ease it off heaps. havnt tried it myself, but heaps of my friends have and say that they work
im sorry things still arnt great between you and your dad but stay positive and hey - soak up some love whereever its comming from.!
lots of love

Stay strong girl. It\'s easy for yuor family to only see the trouble that you\'re in, and they forget that you\'re still a person with other things besides an eating disorder. Keep talkin to them, don\'t lose your voice. I\'m here for you.
I know your pain. I used to get this alot during my first pregnacy. I think the only thing you can do is wait it out.
i know what you mean about your father. my father hasnt talked to me in two years. hope everything gets better!
Gas-X?? I don\'t know, but it seems your other friends have a lot of tips. I have a hard time with my Dad too, but at his age I\'m just glad that he\'s vertical and sucking air. XOXOXO
