Recommended Posts

Has anyone used braggs apple cider vinegar after gastric sleeve surgery to aid in digestive problems or help with weight loss? If so, do you take the vinegar before or after meals?

I've had Braggs cider vinegar.

I tried the "shot each day" thing for a bottle.

It was pre-op and didn't counteract the bs eating I was doing.

I haven't resumed it post op.

I work with a guy who preaches about cider vinegar like it's the Gospel.

Me......I just rely on it for my homemade BBQ Sauce, lol.

I have used Braggs four years, mixed with honey. Post sleeve 3 years, no problem. I have the Braggs book and believe in it!

It's snake oil. Or rather, in the same bulls*** category as essential oils.

To paraphrase the 78 page research study, apple cider vinegar lacks any scientific research to back up any of the claims people have made regarding its benefits.

"Hmm, my stomach is producing too much acid. I should drink vinegar, an acid, to make it less acidic."

Yes, people actually believe that. *iRoll*

      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! 😞
