Salsa with Eggs - 12 hours later?



Recommended Posts

I had an egg with a little bit of salsa for dinner last night. The salsa wasn't too spicy and now, the next morning, I feel like someone punched me in the stomach. I take prescription prilosec daily. ???? I usually have my morning shake right now, but I don't know if I can "stomach" it. Anyone else with this type of feeling after eating? It's not pleasant!

My "Miss Tummy" will punish me for hours if I eat something she dislikes. Still, at 15 1/2 months, she is the boss of me. My whole day depends on what her attitude is going to be, and that requires me to listen to what she is trying to communicate to me.

Miss Tummy can't send me an email, so she will get my attention through hiccups, burps, sneezing, pain and nausea. Miss Tummy is inconsistent and will not like something today that she liked last week. She literaly is the boss of me and can easily ruin my day or my sleep if I get too independant and go back to my old ways.

So, to answer your question: Yes, sometimes the discomfort message is delayed, but she eventually get she my attention - even if it is the middle of the night.

I call my pouch "grumpy".

I've been "foaming" & puking.

What do u take or drink when ur pouch is upset.

Before surgery Id run to ginger all or 7up. Now I'm lost and uncomfortable at work.

Plz help!!

For some until the food is out of the system either by puking or BM the discomfort is there. I don't know how far post-op you are, but spicy foods like salsa may be something you'll need to hold off on for a while.

I'm almost 2 months out and take omeprazole. Salsa kills my stomach, and yet I keep trying because I love it so much. I'm hoping I just need a little more time :)

My band has clearly shut the door on salsa, onions(raw), bread, tomatoes and Chinese food...

Took me years to finally say I won't try those again. Or later.

I cannot figure out the Chinese food restriction... So I just say: Ok band. We are doing things your way...

If it happens again try popping a Tums. You might have had some breakthrough acid even though the Prilosec is usually enough to control it.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
