Sleeved and roller coasters



Recommended Posts

So I am a huge roller coaster fan. The rush is amazing and I've always been able to go on them pre op. I went last month to six flags and it was 5 months post op and the feeling I had in my stomach I will never ever attempt to feel that way again. It was like someone was squeezing my insides and not in the good way. I'm thinking it might be the tension when we drop on the coaster. And being that my stomach is smaller there might be less of it to squeeze. Anyone else having this problem? I go see my doc next week and I'm going to ask him.

Yes! I rode one coaster last month and was miserable for at least an hour after. My stomach felt horrible. I've always been able to ride them in the past. I just chalked it up to "getting older" at the time, but maybe you're right- maybe it is due to the surgery!

Yeah i think it is. I thought about a be I'm too old for it now haha but I do think it's the surgery. I hope it goes away and I'm able to go on it. Thank god I stopped after that awful ride lol it could've been worst.

      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.
