| Can drinking too much protein make you bloated?
Just wondering. I started yesterday to have 3 8 oz glasses of protein mix a day. That way I make sure to hit 120 grams a day. Hopefully. But for some reason today I feel super bloated. 
I don't mind having the protein just making sure there is nothing bad going on. LOL And for you boys......NO not that time yet. LOL

Not protein, but water could do it, so could milk.

Great thanks. I just noticed that I was really bloated after having 2 glasses of that the other day. I will see today. Maybe it has to do with how quick i drink it. Not real sure.

Maybe your body just needs a couple of days to adjust to it?

Yeah not sure. Ok so I will admit I had pizza last night. Hubby was getting all grouchy so I pacified him by eating 2 slices. Oh well....
Yeah needless to say I was nauseous after eating. And this morning am a balloon. LOL Yup just drank my 1st protein drink and before I even drank it I have my little pooch that showed up. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
How embarrassing is it to walk around bloated looking like you are freaking pregnant!

From my own experience, I find that when I mix protein powder with water instead of milk, it is much better for me from a gastrointestinal standpoint. Milk makes it tastier but does make me feel bloated and yes ..... flatulent.

I use only water. Never milk. Well hubby gets upset that I don't have cheat days. I never want them. I feel guilty. And so I agreed and ate it last night to pacify him.

Well you know.....it is what it is. LOL I am beginning to hate that phrase. 
Oh trust me he is appreciating what I have done so far. His attitude about me is slowly changing.....as far as being more worried I guess.
