Grains. they hold water.
Go grain free for one week and see how you feel!
(Note -- I did not say carb free, just grain free esp. wheat and corn)

My diet varies from salad, oatmeal, quinoa, salmon and veg, sometimes a bagel or toast. It doesn’t seem to change the afternoon bloat.
I guess I can try an elimination diet. And avoid full length mirrors 😉
You are probably eating a lot of salt... I'd bet that quinoa, salad dressing, salmon and veggies have a lot of salt in them.

I think peri/ menopause definitely contributes

Isn't this true for anyone who eats during the day?

I think it's just the way some people's bodies are. It's called a food baby.
Sometimes, though, it could be backup of poop/gas.

Eliminate gluten for a couple months see what happens.

Possibly too many carbs and not enough water?

+1
to this.
Everyone weights more as the day goes on but you should not be bloated every day from eating and drinking. I only get bloated when i eat junk or too much salt, but that is not every day.

I am in the same boat. It's awful and makes me avoid evening activities. I don't know what causes this. I am in my late 40s.

Remedy: don't look in full-length mirrors after you get dressed in the morning.

I am quite satisfied with the way I look first thing in the morning, my stomach/abdomen looks flat and I feel generally thinner. But by 4 pm, it's a total bait & switch in the mirror! I am bloated from my bra strap down and look about 10 lbs heavier. Can anyone else identify with this? Is this just an old person thing, or a menopausal woman thing? Is it dietary? Is it something that can be remedied? Thanks!
