linda305 173 Posted July 13, 2013 I haven't had surgery yet but i love spicy food. Anyone had issues with spicy food and how long after surgery did you have to wait before it was okay to eat spicy food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notmeanymore 629 Posted July 13, 2013 I love spicy food too but ever since surgery I have heartburn which is common with some sleevers. So because of that, if Im going to have spicy foods I have to eat them at lunch or as early in the day as possible because I find if I have it for dinner that my acid reflux is bad at night. Just pay attention to your body and you might have to adjust the time you eat it like myself. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joatsaint 2,814 Posted July 13, 2013 I eat spicy food almost weekly. The only issues I've had is with salsa - I think it's the tomatoes. But it doesn't last but a few minutes and then I'm fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JessicaAnn 564 Posted July 13, 2013 I'm 9 days post op and I'm fine with spicy food. I eat Tabasco on my eggs or Beans, and I can eat hot and sour Soup (which is very spicy). No heartburn, no problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SerendipityHappens 1,594 Posted July 13, 2013 I wasn't much of a spicy food person preop, but a week after surgery I was putting Frank's in my chicken broth! I eat spicy all the time and it feels great on my sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MIJourney 490 Posted July 13, 2013 Haven't had a lot yet but have been putting Frank's Red Hot Sauce on my refried Beans with no problem. Also have tried salsa and salsa verde. All good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Susmcmur 124 Posted July 13, 2013 Love spicy food! Within the first 4 months it didn't love me, but I took Previcid up to month 6. After about 6-8 months, I was eating hot stuff with no problems. This too shall pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
