Gastric pain after drinking Pepsi



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I did my Mini gastric bypass in 28th of may last year it's been a 1 year and 5 month free of junk food and carbonated drinks.< /p>

BUT last night i was craving for Pepsi so i drank a small can but now I'm having gastric pain in my lower stomach is it normal or should i tell my doctor???

I hate to tell him that cause he's a total meanie [emoji31]

What to do is there anyone had the same thing with carbonated drinks???

I had the sleeve gastrectomy in April of this year and if I have a small drink of anything carbonated, I feel nauseous until I let out a huge burp. I've actually had to get my hubby to pat me on the back like burping a baby.

I can drink carbonated, no issues (thankfully because I hate the taste of still water!)

My mate with a bypass can’t even have 50ml without pain, nausea. She is 4 years out.

Looks like you might be in her camp! But no great loss I reckon - nothing in soda or diet soda that is good for our journey!

I don’t drink carbonated beverages post-MGB. Almost 2 years post-op I don’t feel that great when I try to drink them. But it’s fine because I never had a soda habit before surgery so I’m not missing or craving them. They’re not healthy in general so I say good riddance.

      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.
