I have been on Met for 3 weeks. So far the s/e are minimal The only thing that has been real bothersome is the gas!! My tummy is always bloated also (probably due to the gas...). Is this a side effect of the Met?

Yep. It has improved CONSIDERABLY since I started eating cleaner and added lots of fibre (Plus i run which makes me ourageously regular...TMI I know), but at first it was bad. In the mean time consider trying beano or something.

I've only been on Met for one week, with minimal s/e as well, but the gas is a bit of a problem, even though I eat clean. I am upping my fibre to see if that helps, so thanks for that tip

I can totally relate. The gas is terrible. I feel so bad for my DH. He just smiles and takes it in stride. It's not like he never farts!!

I can totally relate. I often feel bloated, but I've increased my fiber intake and that has helped.
