Stomach distention

hello- 2 years ago I had a small bowel resection because of numerous obstructions. Recently my stomach looks 9 months pregnant, and have gas pockets in upper stomach after eating. Please respond if experienced similar symptoms and what I could be wrong. Thank you

my first thought is food allergy or sensitivity. The body is constantly changing and something you used to be fine eating, you may not be sensitive to now.
The main culprits are gluten, dairy, soy, greasy foods, fast food, fatty foods, and highly acidic foods. Remove these from your diet and see if it helps.
