The increased abdominal bloating after eating could be due to dysmotility dyspepsia/gastroparesis.
You can get relief with Reglan.
Check your blood glucose level as high blood glucose is one of the causes.
Increased ALT is most often due to fatty liver disease. You can confirm it with an ultrasound scan of the abdomen.
Reduce weight if you are obese.
Avoid alcohol if you have the habit of drinking alcohol.
