Heartburn/ Acid reflux

[samnoir80 0]

Sleeved on 12/18/17 I was doing fine minus the 64oz of Water, very hard. I’m 6 weeks in and started having a hard time with Protein. Hard for me to digest chicken, salmon most anything without feeling stuff. I manage to go from S.W.- 290 C.W. 242.6. Off to a great start but the a week ago I started having severe heartburn even though I have been on Prilosec since I came home from the hospital. Has anyone been experiencing this. Some days I get anxiety about eating because I do it want to deal with the burning in my chest. Please let me know if anyone experienced this and what was you trick in dealing with.

I had my surgery on 12/27/17. I was doing so bad with Water intake/ any Fluid intake that I was dehydrated the first week. I had to find what worked for me. Very warm teas worked for me, or slushy drinks that I’d make myself out of diet cranberry juice (dilute it to cut the sweetness) and a bunch of ice blended. I was also told no straws but honestly I get more gas and heartburn when I don’t use a straw so for me it worked! I’m 1 month and two days in and I still am not allowed to eat chicken although I’ve had a few small moist chicken pieces here and there last week. I would say don’t do chicken... yet! I’m on soft foods so mashed sweet potato, mashed cauliflower, oatmeal’s, eggs, tilapia are things you can eat. I can’t tolerate milk, eggs or tilapia so I stay away for a while. Also Protein wise! I could NOT get in protein from Protein Shakes at all till about two weeks ago! Late I know! Still lost weight though.

Premier protein shakes are my absolute enemies, which sucks cause I used to love them before surgery now I can’t stand any shake. So I drink protein drinks like water protein drinks. Isopure has some!
