    Rumbling in the tummy

    Proton Pump Inhibitors, like: omeprazole (Prilosec, Prilosec OTC, Zegerid) lansoprazole (Prevacid) pantoprazole (Protonix) rabeprazole (Aciphex) esomeprazole (Nexium) dexlansoprazole (Dexilant)

    Vacation advice

    I travel nearly weekly, starting at 3 weeks post op. The only real challenge is getting enough protein. I packed shakes and bars, so I could be sure I'd hit that macro. But every restaurant, every airport, convenience store, has good healthy options available. Sometimes you have to make some tweaks to dishes, but the basics of our diet is lean protein, and that is easy to find.

    Rumbling in the tummy

    Definitely sounds like acid to me. Are you a PPI?

    Constipation

    No, not al all. I don’t even think that’s possible because it dissolves completely in liquid. I can’t imagine what could make it expand once it hits your stomach. Get the generic, like Walmart’s Equate, or the CVS brand etc. there is a huge price difference for the name brand, but identical ingredients in the store brand

    Constipation

    I agree with using Benefiber. I added a couple of tablespoons to anything liquid with flovor, soup, protein shakes, crystal light, etc. I also took stool softeners (pills). Like you, I really wanted it to be gentle and natural, and not a run to the bathroom type of situation.

    @Naughty Glitter Goddess Do you ever go to Winco? At least some locations have "grind your own" nut butters.

    Six months post-op+ : The Sophomores Thread

    @GreenTealael Have you considered stopping your cycle altogether? Either through stacking oral bc, or a hormonal IUD, or depo (which I wouldn't recommend)?
  13. Good point .... shhhh .... just keep it between us then. 🤣
  14. So apparently I need to eat more wings and jello! This I can do 🤣 Uh oh .... low intensity cardio is apparently bad. I mean it feels intense, but probably isn't really 😪
  15. I can't. But wonder if I was a member would it show up on my page under groups?
  16. Thanks Fluffy .... just paranoid about privacy .... Thanks for humoring me!

    I've also gone down half a shoe size, and can spend a day in heels and not want to die. 🤣 Also had to ditch my wide calf boots.
