Some of this sounds familiar. I’m eating 4,000+ calories a day. Not only does eating not bloat me, but eating actually reduces the bloating and size of my waist by the time I’m done with a meal. Between meals is when I start to get bloated again. I’ve consulted with Matt on the phone and we think the bloating is gastroparesis brought on by 5 years of low carbing, low calories, intermittent fasting, paleo diets. I’m 10 weeks into RRARF and at this point the “between meal bloating” has reduced by about half and gets slightly better each week. The more I eat, the less I bloat and the faster the previous meal gets pushed down the digestive tract so it can stop fermenting in the gut. At least that’s what seems to be happening based on observation.
