How Long Before I Can Drink A Soda Or A Zipp Fizz?



Recommended Posts

Mosher are you sleeved? Nvm I found that you were. Your still early out the gate. I went through a grogy phase but now its hard for me to sleep. Caffiene doesnt sit to well for some reason. Feels like heartburn but in the bottom of your stomach. Its strange. But Like I said. Your energy levels gonna rocket so you really dont need that stuff. I work 12 hour night shifts 28 days straight. No problems here

Why wait 6 months or a year and stretch out the new stomach when you can have some the day of discharge and rip it open!!! Go for it ... Try not to die and get back vst let us know you did !

, Thanks for the rude comment. Why bother commenting at all?

Thanks, I dont work that many days in a row but I cant tolerate the coffee either. The 1st 5 weeks was pretty awful, but I'm feeling better now. Thanks for your reply

Hey. Thats just a slap you in the face to wake u up type of comment. Lol. You have to understand the spectrum of personalities. Theres 4 main groups then 4 sub groups. I happen to be one of the ones like above but with age I am toning down lol.

They are only stating a possible outcome if you did.

I just took all my Zippfizz off this vessel last time I went home along with cases of applesauce, mt dew, cranberry juice and a bunch of other things that I just dont drink/eat anymore since surgery. After awhile the want just goes away

Oh funny you mention coffee lmao. I been getting new deckhands left and right. They all wake up and say "How do you want your coffee? " I look at them and say "empty". Each one looked at me in confusion and they say "What? A captain that dont drink coffee or smoke cigarettes." they crack me up cause they follow the habits of their superiors and I mess up their program lol.

I am 6 months out. Tea gives me heartburn moderately. So I figure if tea does me like that well coffee is gonna run the mill with me so I never touched it since 30 days preop

5 Hour Energy (or you can find a generic version at the Dollar Tree which does the same exact effect) will give you probably the same amount of energy the Zipp Fizz would. I've never tried Zipp Fizz so I'm not really sure what kind of effect that would give you, so I can't comment on it. I just wanted to tell you there are alternatives out there.

Sleevers have a very difficult time absorbing B-12, and is especially true for me. I take in huge amounts yet my panels come back smack in the normal range always. It's bizarre, but it is what it is. I can imagine how they'd look if I never took any.

Keep in mind everyone is different, so I'm not advising anyone to go out and do what I'm doing. The best thing to do especially if you are less than 6 months post op is to ask your surgeon or nutritionist what you should be eating as far as supplements.

All the best!

Also, Sam's Club has 5hr energy for $36/24pk. I buy it that way because it breaks down to $1.50 each. A box could last me about 6 months though.

It stays fizzy for awhile. Mine is an imitation of an orange soda with added b-12, caffiene and more

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
