Recommended Posts

No, it's just teen talk for 'that's just so obvious, ya know, ya know' No harm meant.

What is a duh mean? That I am dumb?

I had this twice and stopped eating and taking my Vitamins too close to bedtime. I moved my vitamins to after bfast and lunch and no longer eat anything an hour before bedtime. No problems ever since... The two times it happened to me were awful - I had never experienced it before and then I couldn't stop coughing either.... Hope this helps :)

Most beef is high in fat, including the ground beef you most likely had in your taco filling. Your stomach produces extra acid to aid in digestion and the acid was not inhibited enough by PPI, I assume you have been given. Also, not sure if this is the case, it could be there was a lot of pressure due to food, on the Cardiac Sphincter. Read more here.

I use ground turkey in my taco filling. 93/7.

I also eat dinner around 6 and go to bed around 9, so there is a lot of time inbetween eating and laying down. I just think it was the spicyness of the food and salsa. It hasn't happened since, but I haven't eaten anything like that since.

Thanks.

Kelly :D

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
