they say the best way to eat is 6 small meals a day, grazing kind of like so you don't ever get too hungry.
I don't eat like this I usually eat 2-3 times a day, routinely 2.
but I have not been able to lose weight so maybe I need to do something different.

That's a possible way to do it. I've been dieting with supplements, and veggies. I've been eating Lean Cuisine dinners late at night. I don't seem to have very much energy though. I was thinking about what you said about low blood sugar last night. I see my councilor on Thursday. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Bizi is right about eating more frequent small meals. When I was on my last diet I was eating more, and more often, but lost a lot of weight because I was just eating different things.

I get a lot of digestive symptoms when my anxiety is high. I try to take something to treat heartburn because it makes things more tolerable. It's not a pleasant symptom :hug:

Hi Kay. I have heartburn issues also. They say that the Nexium type meds should not be taken continually, but for a limited amount of time. I was taking one of those class of medications for years. I'm concerned about that.

I've been taking Alka-Seltzer HearthburnChews, and/or Pepcid AC recently. My heartburn is painful. I don't know what to do over the long run after hearing warnings about the Nexium type medications. BF:hug::hug::hug:

hubby takes nexium everyday to help prevent his esophagus from narrowing and to prevent heartburn. For many years now.
sigh
something to worry about.

From what I've heard recently, if these meds(Nexium), and other versions of it are taken continually, it can cause Kidney problems. I've heard these things on the news more then once.

I'm wondering if MrsD has more balanced information about this. BF:hug::hug::hug:

repeated heart burn or gerd can cause issues with your esophagus that can lead to cancer. I wonder which one is more at risk?

I take a prescription med called Protonix that my gastro has put me on permanently because the OTCs didn't work. It's really helped me. It's something worth talking to your PCP about. I also take Gaviscon tablets for breakthrough heartburn. It's 100X better than Tums.

I know what you men bizi. I seem to need a heartburn med each day. I wish that the network news would stop scaring us. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Hi Kay. I'll probably ask my doctor to prescribe me a medication like that. The heartburn is overwhelming if I don't take something for it. BF:hug::hug::hug:
