My stomach. Well lets just say we have a strange relationship. Between the medications for my auto-immune issues and the pressure of 70 extra lbs, my stomach likes to revolt. It creates too much acid and flat out revolts. This acid, finds me, whether I have just ate a full meal, or sipped a glass of water. I've tried prescriptions, which to be honest, might work, if I would take them like I should. I really hate paying for expensive medication and usually the hot, new, stomach pill is an expensive item. So Tums or Chewable Pepcid it is until its real bad, then a quick shot of alkaseltzer usally does the trick. I have a bottle of liquid antacid at my desk at work, and Tums in my purse. I have to be prepared no matter my location.
Every time I lose weight, my reflux gets better. Last night, I required no acid medication. If this alone isn't reason for me to lose weight, I don't know what else wood be. I am looking forward to that day, when I don't have to panic if I am not armed with my arsenal of antacids. Looking forward to Saturday evening weigh in!
