Is it actual bloat, or just a heavy, "wooden" feeling in the
legs? If you press your thumb into your ankle, does it take a
long time for the white mark to disappear? The diet should, if
anything, get rid of bloat because of its diuretic effect.
If it's just the wooden feeling in the legs, it is probably carb
depletion.
