I bought a ton of Nexium Mups when I was in Sexy Mexi. For some reason I thought they would be a powder, but these are tablets. Is everyone crushing the tablets and mixing in something?

I never crushed mine - they dissolve in Water easily. I used a shot glass and filled it with water & dropped a Nexium in. It dissolved in about a minute and I stirred it up and threw it back. It's foul, but very effective!

HA HA! I'm a dork!

When I crushed them, I noticed that there were these little round balls inside. I kept thinking...well that's dumb if I have to crush it then why did they put these little balls in here?

Well now I know I don't have to crush them! I'll just blame that on anesthesia.

I couldn't gag them down disolved in water- I would crush mine and mix them with a spoon full of broth. After a month I just couldn't do it anymore. Wrote Dr. Aceves and he said i could change to Prisolec which I can swallow whole thank god. Cathi

I also was putting them in a shot glass or small medicine cup with Water. They dissolve in a minute or 2. Now I am almost 3 months out so I started swallowing them whole and have not had any trouble with them.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
