Anyone else sensitive to artificial sweeteners?



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I'll be sleeved in a few days. My issue that I fear is that most artificial sweeteners give me low blood sugar. Has anyone else had this issue? Can you just eat regular Jello (and stop when you can have Protein shakes) etc?

I am not sensitive to artificial sweeteners, I just can't stand the taste. Sigh, I am just going to have to get used to it or steer clear of sugar all together as much as possible.

I'll be fine once I can get through the first 10 days. That will be the challenge. I'm not a sugar addict thankfully.

I didn't think I was a sugar addict until I got rid of soda and caffeine. After the caffeine withdrawal was over, I suddenly wanted candy and lot's of it. I don't like candy all that often, until now! Now I am having to stop that too. Sigh...

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
