(7 months post op) i basically took a two week vacation from riding to sort of hit the reset button. and with the job search and starting a new job my mind was focused on other things. at this point i really do need to start focusing more on the "quality" of food that goes down the gullet. the surgery took care of the "quantity" but if i stuff my face with garbage then what's the point?
the heartburn issue has gotten a whole lot better. for those that are thinking about the surgery what they don't tell you "enough" is that if you eat and drink too close together you'll get heartburn. if you eat too fast you'll get heartburn. if you wait too long between meals you'll get heartburn. i know the reasons for all these scenarios but it all kind of boils down to. your stomach is smaller but it is producing as much stomach acid as it was before the surgery. over time it goes down, and it has, but till the day i die i have to pay attention to the solid/liquid timing. zantac is my friend :)
april is my ABSOLUTE favorite month in Texas. so many good memories. bluebonnets, trees budding, and cool breezes. weather permitting i'll be riding a lot this month. even twice a day some days. let the games begin.
