Dealing with the heat - ThinnerTimes

Hi All,

I have been having problems the last few days with this heat wave. Everytime I eat I want to throw up. I am not eating any different than I have for the last 6 months. I just feel horrible. Last night I layed on the couch and held my tummy for an hour. Unfortunately I don't throw up so this makes it worse. Any suggestions would be great.

Hi there--

Maybe you're a little dehydrated??? I don't know how far out from your surgery you are-- whether you're doing soft foods or you've been cleared for all foods. Shortly after my surgery I was thirstier than I could drink (if that makes any sense). So I ended up seeking out 7-11's and places like that where I could buy a cup of ice so I could just suck on ice all day. It helped a lot. You might also try some sugar-free popsicles. Dreyer's makes a really good option.

Good luck. Hope you find some relief soon!

I am almost 7 months out. I drink lots of water all day long. I have hereditary heat sickness and it just seems worse since surgery. My poor husband keeps getting scared because I turn as white as a sheet. I am eating less and that is helping but I feel better if I just do liquids when it is hot out.
