OK, so I’m not sure why I’m even going to post about this… I guess I’m just needing to vent about my discomfort.

First, I came upon this new high value Gas-X coupon on Coupons.com: save $2 on any Gas-X Prevention product. I was extremely excited when I saw this coupon because well, I’ll be putting it to use! You see, yesterday my hubby made me chicken salad (which was very sweet of him!) and put it in these low carb wraps he’d purchased. After eating the wrap I felt fine…. now fast forward a few hours and ummm… ya, I wasn’t feelin’ to hot. Lets just say those lovely low carb wraps did not sit well in my stomach and I’m still paying for it today.

So the moral of my little story… print off those Gas-X coupons! You never know when you’ll need them! 😉

  6. ANDREA

    LOL!!

    Fiber One bars and Kashi Go Lean Crunch did the same thing to me and the hubs. HORRIBLE. LOL

    • JennyBerg

      I refuse to purchase the fiber one granola bars, they taste so darn good but hurt so bad a few hours later. Never I will repeat NEVER eat more than one in a 24 hour time period! LOL

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Totally agree. Fiber One Bars are THE WORST!!! They are delicious but produce some of the nastiest gas I’ve ever experienced. TMI? 🙂

      • Lorianne

        Ok, I thought my and my sisters were crazy!!! The Fiber One bars are soooo delicious, but wow….you better only eat them in the morning or not eat them at all!!!

        • JennyBerg

          They are really bad, we should write to Fiber one and ask them to put less fiber in them =D they are sinfully delish! But how funny that we all become TMI central, we are an honest group here! I love it, makes me laugh!

          • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

            Fiber One bars do give a lot of gas and stomach aches at first. The reason it has alot of fiber is because they suggest we should have 35 grams of fiber a day. It helps some on caloric diets where you don’t have to eat a whole lot to get your fiber in. There’s hype about fiber is to prevent colon cancer. Fiber helps cleanse your system. The more red meat you eat, it tends to hang around in your system, which causes colon issues.

      OMG, I thought the Kashi problem was just me. It is the ONLY thing that affects me that way!

      • Allison

        so so so so true!!! I call them f*rt bars! I too loved them, but when it got the point that I couldn’t go anywhere unless it was within four hours of eating one, I stopped getting them. What a shame, though!

      • Rebecca

        The Kashi Go Lean Crunch does that to me, too! I feel like I can’t go out in public after I eat that for breakfast- too embarrassing!

    I would suspect (after years of low-carbing) that the wraps have extra fiber added to them to bring down the carb count (every gram of fiber means you can “subtract” a gram of carbohydrates from the net carb count), and fiber for some people (like me) always seems to mean gas, bloating, general lower intestinal discomfort… Sorry to hear you need the Gas-X, Collin, but it works and thank goodness for products like this!

  9. TD

    LOL you are Hilarious!

  10. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    LOL- you are too funny Collin! Kashi Go Lean & Fiber One products do that too! Your body does get use to them after eating them everyday, but when you stop & start all over eating the high fiber products you start from square one!

  11. Amanda S

    and stay away from the sugar free Russell Stover’s candy!!! Gives new meaning to the phrase “minty fresh.”

    • Rhonda

      YEP! More malitol!

      • Heather G

        oh yes!! I ate a WHOLE bag once and was DYING!!!!

  12. NIcole

    Watch out for a $5 off Target coupon if you’ve ordered anything from Target.com lately. I had one in my shipment last week and will stack with this $2 coupon. Awesome!

  13. Heather

    Aww, that’s never fun… hope you feel better soon!!

  14. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    LOLing my behind off over here.

    Glad I’m not the only one who shares tmi. 🙂

  15. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Glad to hear everyone talk about it!!! I always (and repeat, always!!!) have the worst gas. I’m not sure what triggers it – but it’s outta control bad!!!

  16. Christie Pancake

    Hilarious! Note to self: do not eat oatmeal AND a Fiber One yogurt for breakfast….

  17. Michelle M

    You are SOOO FUNNY for sharing this revealing information. WE’VE ALL BEEN THERE!!

  18. Amy

    I’ve had some low carb wraps that have sugar alcohol in them and that can make for a nasty day! Especially if you have more than one! Not fun!
    Hope you feel better real soon!

  19. Tiffany Phillips

    Oh so funny…you should hear my boys after I feed them that “smart” pasta by Ronzoni – UGH…its got extra fiber and calcium…they think its sooooo funny – I’ll stay away from the low carb wraps – uh, well, unless its a money maker, haha – hope your tummy is feeling better!

  20. fran

    Wow, can you imagine all of you in one room after you’ve consumed everything that gives you gas? I wouldn’t want to be in that room 🙂

    Collin, Ginger Ale might do the trick. Feel better 🙂

  21. Shonda

    LMAO!!! Thank you! LOVE the honesty…SO my personality. =)

  22. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I just had the same experience with these bars … right before I got on a two hour flight! LOL!

  23. grace

    the 90 calorie snack bars are pretty yummy (chocolate peanut butter), and not nearly as troublesome 😉
