Hi my name is Christine and I am 14 days post surgery from Roux en y gastric bypass surgery and my Dr told me pre surgery that I could flavor my food with Splenda however if u use a lot it can cause uncomfortable symptoms like nausea which I experienced this morning after morning coffee(decaf). Can anyone expand on this subject!!! It would be extremely helpful!!!

How much Splenda are you planning to consume in a day? If I'm having fat-free yogurt or a cup of coffee I use one packet of Splenda. If I'm going to bake something I use Swerve.

Had lapband surgery 10/12/16

I had RNY gastric bypass surgery and use Splenda without any problems. After surgery many things can trigger nausea. It might not be the Splenda.

some people do have trouble with various artificial sweeteners....although like the person above said, it could be something else, too. Some things don't sit with you well post-surgery. Especially early out...
