    debbo1959 got a reaction from sweesee in Does VSG typically increase heartburn   
    I had it bad before surgery, but I haven't had it at all since I got my sleeve. Watch eating real spices food. You should be fine. I had surgery July 6th.

    I had my surgery 7/6,I can eat about everything,well I haven't tried red meat yet! But beside that,my problem is slowing down!!! A couple of times,I ate a little to much,I'm learning trust me. I was so sick at my stomach I actually had to lay down,so about 20 minutes later I was fine. So for anyone that feels full................STOP,DON'T TAKE THAT LAST BITE!!!!!!lol. Do you all know your brain doesn't let you know your full until 20 minutes after your already full???? Weird,huh??? A little trivia there. Have a great day!

    My dr. told me the pre -op diet was to help the liver shrink so they can get to your stomach easier. The stomach is behind the liver,the take like a "metal Straw"& lift the liver up. Why I know this may dr. gave me the pictures of my surgery. I couldn't believe how huge my stomach was,he cut alot off!!!! It was interesting to see!!!!

    Tomorrow will be a month & I eat slices of cheese,of course I eat small pieces & make sure I chew them up really good. Do you guys think it's too soon for solid food like that? I feel comfortable eating cheese. I even had a tuna salad sandwich one day,it was cut into 4 small pieces& again, I chewed it up very good.It took me a while to eat it,but it was so tasty!!!!!

    I had my surgery,July 6th,My first z days home were a little hard,but now I also feel grest,I do have to drink slow. I get full very easy, my surgeon doesn't want me over doing it,just a nice walk,I went to the grocery store today,which I haven't done in months, we haven't had a car for about a year. It's about 1/2 mile from my housec (the store)so my fat butt sure wasn't walking in Texas 90's weather,but I got a ride &didn't get exhausted from just shopping like before,so I'd say yes,my be not at your level,but I feel pretty darn good☺????
