I've searched for this topic but not found it yet, so 'scuse me if you've heard this one before.

I have been bloated for as long as I can remember. I'm not gassy though. My abdomen sticks out, not unlike the malnourished children you see on famine-relief/sponsorship ads. This isn't ALL the time, but most - I tend to hold it in, and when I release it's like WHOMP, there it is. Sometimes, it's just there, like I'm pregnant.

I am not that overweight either, maybe 10 pounds. It doesn't seem like it's just fat. It's like a beer gut - solid, with a layer of fat on it.

I am suspecting a food intolerence somewhere, although I don't really have any other symptoms. I do have a mould allergy, and hay fever. Used to have terrible bread/cracker/potato chip cravings, which have cleared up since lc-ing (thank god).

Anyway, if anyone has insight on this, my ears are open.
