Sippy Cups, Oh Happy Day!



Recommended Posts

So not sure if others have been given this advice, but my NUT said buying children's sippy cups was a good way to train myself to take small sips, and help stop me from gulping.

Maybe it's just me, but I'd be totally embarrassed walking around with a sippy cup that has handles on both sides, and Dora The Explorer pictures all over it. LOL. But wanted to share that I FINALLY found an "adult" looking sippy cup!!! So if anyone's been looking for the same thing, here's one I found online at Target:

Ahh, the simple joys in life. B)

Sports Authority also has them by nagalene in the camping section.

They are in pink, blue, and green and look "camping trip outdoors style"! :rolleyes:

I use a camelbak. I've used it since a month after surgery and my dr is ok with it. I know how many sips I can take before over doing it. I carry it everywhere.

But, isn't that like a straw? I thought no sucking was allowed?

It has a straw but once its primed it stays at the top. I had a problem drinking before without the straw and after the first drink per bottle I don't get the air.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
