I am about 9 weeks post op and had small diced bell peppers on my pizza and it got me soooo sick. Also I tried easy cooked small diced onions in my omelette and threw up. I say wait or cook your veggies until smooth. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm 2 months post op now. I'm having shoulder pain or in not sure what to call it but my shoulders feel tired all the time. When washing my face or teeth and leaning down at the sink I always get nauseated and get excessive saliva. Even when I lean down to get anything from a drawer/ laundry. Regardless I wanted to unwind and relax so I'm booking a massage at the spa, I'm afraid I will get sick and not enjoy it. It's kind of expensive to me but I really want it. I need a reward for my hard work. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Don't regret telling her or any of your actions. It's a learning experience. We all have at least that one person in our life who let us down/disappointed us. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My experience with carbonation has been like this: Had tiny sip of Diet Pepsi and it gave me a crazy beating in my chest but I thought it was my nerves. A couple of days later I did it again and nothing happened. Different day, I had a bigger portion of Diet Coke ( quarter of a glass) again with the crazy beating but it didn't last for a long time. So on a different day I tried quarter of a glass of 7up and I threw up a little and burped like crazy. Today I tried Dr Pepper, and I must say I drank 3/4 of the can and it was a bad attempt I threw up so much and felt so sick and dizzy afterwords even my stomach and shoulders felt funny for hours. I hope this helps I feel bad I can't drink carbonation at least for now but I may try again on a good day and I wish it goes well. There are other sleevers who are more than a year post up say they drink carbonation everyday. I my self is a recent sleever so I this maybe why my experience hasn't been great. also I must mention I suffer from excessive saliva after the surgery which isn't a common side effect and my doctor says he doesn't know why this is happening to me and that it is rare since he did a couple of leak tests and they were both ok. Everybody please pray for me to get over this issue. Please share your experience with carbonation and excessive saliva. and when did you first attempt to drink carbonation at which point of your sleeve journey. Thanks and best of luck to all.

Plz read and help with your experience Here's how it is for me: First week was fine no Water nausea no sliming. Second to fourth week was hell so difficult to drink water and sliming like crazy! Fifth week started ok but then I started to realize that I get a strange feeling after drinking water. Like some one punched me in the stomach. And still slimming!!! When will this all go away!

I tried cold/ice cold/ice/room temp I think they all have the same effect. Usually I will only take a couple of sips after I eat. But if I'm an hour before or after a meal I will try to drink as much as I can take. Honestly at that point I will not sip but I will drink normally. As far as Protein shakes I haven't found a shake that works for me so I don't take them. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
