The Gym and Water giving me grief



Recommended Posts

I have been going to the gym for the past week. I do about an hour of the eliptical. I get the worst heartburn during, but especially after the workout. I also get terrible heartburn when I drink Water. I make sure it is 3 hours plus after I eat before I hit the gym. Anyone else experience this and have any suggestions?

I agree. I was told that if you get heartburn that there could e a problem with the band. Most likely its too tight. Call the Dr. Heartburn is miserable.

I do not think the band is too tight as I am eating okay. It only happens when I work out and drink Water. I do not have an issue drinking water throughout the day. I wonder maybe if it is the type of foods I am eating for dinner that night as I tend to work out at 8pm or so?

My Doc gave me Pepcid Plus, and it helped with Heartburn.

We were all put on this for a while.

It's over the counter, and chewable.< /p>

But call your Doc about the Heartburn, he might prescribe something.

Like I said you should not be having heart burn at all EVER. You dont know that the band is not too tight. My doctor has a poster up in his office that states if you have heartburn at all you are too tight. You should not have heartburn at all ever.

I get heart burn and pains sometimes if I am drinking Water especially if it is cold. Before going gyming I take room temp Water with me and I am usually ok. Sometimes I add some crystal light that for some reason makes it easier to go down.

Heart burn is def a sign you need an unfill but like you I dont have any problems with the band. Last week the problems were bad with the pain but this week after having mostly liquids and no spicy food for a few days everything is at peace again.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
