Veggie bloat?

The weirdest thing happened to me yesterday. Here was my menu:
B: soy milk, hb egg, two soy sausage patties, coffee
L: cottage cheese w/two tomatoes, two peaches
S: carrots, broccoli w/hummus (I'd guess about 3 cups total of the veggies), apple
D: yogurt w/blueberries, spinach salad
workout: spinning class, yoga, pilates
My menu was a bit different from normal . . . my lunch was on the small side so I got starving, but think I did pretty well eating a bigger snack, but sticking to healthy options. I had four fruits, but not grains. Anyhow, after the afternoon veggie/fruit overload my stomach got all crampy and I was in pain all evening. I have no idea what caused this. The only notable difference was that I had more raw veggies than normal. Additionally, while yesterday I weighed 126, which is normal, today I was up two pounds. I don't think anything I ate should have caused such a drastic weight gain. What happened??


I'm not sure of any reasons *why*, just wanted to say its happened to me too!

Michael Ann,
I feel much better after your post! I'm sure this is what happened to me. And yes, I'm still a bit crampy and gassy. It's awful! So much for being healthy and eating lots of veggies. I normally have some raw veggies, but yesterday I had a lot more than usual and I think it just killed me. I'm cutting back a bit today and hopefully will feel better tomorrow.
Thanks,
V
