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.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
