I was wondering if this is normal or if it has ever happened to any of you. I was fasting on and off for about 3 weeks and I broke my last four days fast three days ago. The day that I broke it, I became very bloated like if as though as I had my period. My veins on both my feet and hands are very protuberant, but right now I can't see any--I have baby hands. I fasted for another day hoping that it would go away, but it didn't (I actually gained half a pound on my fasting day). I waited another day to see if it would go away, but I'm still like a little puffer fish. Is this a normal thing to happen after a fast, specially such a short one? Is there anything that I can do to help it go away?
PS:I did not eat anything that contains a lot of sodium.
