Phat girl 6 Posted September 10, 2011 My kids bought be a diet slurpee which I greedily started sucking down with a straw. I am now in horrible, horrific pain. I'm assuming from gas. Dumb rookie mistake. Don't let it happen to you. death to diet slurpees! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnneG 7 Posted September 11, 2011 Yeah, we gotta sip sip sip. Hope you feel better soon. Do you have any gasX strips on hand? Those might help some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phat girl 6 Posted September 12, 2011 I ended up in pain for hours and was taking Gas X strips like they were candy. It eventually passed. I've never been so glad to just poot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msdw59 11 Posted September 13, 2011 i'm a rule breaker - i drink with a straw (there, I said it). What i find is that if I just drink from a glass, i get pain, and spasms. with a stray, nothing! i just make sure that i don't pull the very last of the drink from the straw.

Forensikchic 528 Posted September 13, 2011 I tried using a straw to get down my Protein Shake. It was so thick that most of it stayed high in the straw and I didnt get much air. I was ok. I think if you drink thinner liquids you might get a lot of air especially if your drink fast and dont sip. I am only 5 weeks out and I cant gulp or drink more than a sip at a time.
