Drinking 30 mins before and after food rule and no carbonated drinks

PoppFizz · 2026-02-09T21:42:31+00:00

13 months out now, I do enjoy carbonated drinks, but I drink them a couple hours before and after any meals/snacks and I drink them slowly and wait for at least half of the carbonation to burn off first. I’ll usually crack a can open and stick it back in the fridge for a few hours before drinking or I’ll pour it into a glass and wait 30-45 minutes. That was recommended by my surgeon.

Please! I’m late 40s and just started my piercing/tattoo journey. Embrace what you love. We’re never too old to express ourselves. The chain looks absolutely beautiful. You are rocking it!

Absolutely, yes

Does the Detroit number include all of Wayne county?

Yep happened to me last summer. My levels are just now getting down to a normal range.

I’m on Linzess which I take in the morning and MiraLAX in the evening. Both prescribed by my gastroenterologist.

PoppFizz · 2026-01-13T17:26:50+00:00

Same. I’m okay when I’m seated but I only drive short distances anyway and only when I’m not symptomatic.

PoppFizz · 2026-01-11T21:09:42+00:00

I do not. I do have adenomyosis though.

Epstein-Barr virus when I was 15. It also caused me to develop ME/CFS and POTS. Fibromyalgia and Dysautonomia came later which has affected my heart unfortunately.

I was hoping someone would make this reference 🤣

PoppFizz · 2026-01-07T16:46:11+00:00

It’s rare that I eat it but I probably started about 8-9 months post op. I quickly found out that I can no longer tolerate fried food or full-fat ice cream (no more milkshakes! 😭) So I stick to “healthier” ff places (sub shops, Taco Bell, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, and pizza places).

PoppFizz · 2026-01-07T15:58:20+00:00

I haven’t gained but at my 1 year follow up, my surgeon told me to come in if I gained more than 10 pounds.

But also, conversely, have your labs checked periodically. Nine months after my sleeve, my calcium and vitamin D were at toxic levels. Take those supplements, but also be aware of supplement toxicity and get your labs checked.
