    It's one day of indulgence, just drink plenty of water today and take some heartburn tablets, you'll be fine tomorrow. Also try drinking milk, that tends to help.

    Milk? Isn't that for baby cows?

    Yep...plus it will make you fat.

    That's the LAST think I want!!!!!

    It might make you grow horns too. Cows drink it. Cows grow horns.

    SCIENCE!!!

    Only the boy cows...so either I am ok or I will grow something else as well!

    Hmmmmmm. And with all that lifting you look like you do.......

    I'm afraid the damage is done...... Sorry. :cry:

    Chocolate and alcohol are both acidic which would make the environment of your stomach more acidic, raise the pressure in there, then cause the sphincter between your stomach and your esophagus to get floppy and to let acid through, thus resulting in the heartburn. Make sure you keep yourself hydrated today (urine should be light yellowish) and maybe take a pepcid AC to resolve the heartburn you have right now.

    I wouldn't do anything drastic today to compensate for the fun you had last night; sure, you broke your routine. Why not just jump back on today and make healthier choices? One day isn't going to cause you to gain fifty gagillion pounds or set you back horribly as far as health and weight-loss goals go. Studies show that it takes at least 3 days for our guts to turn over with a change in diet, and for us to really start storing excess calories. Before the three days, we'll just poop out most stuff because our guts aren't accustomed to dealing with the different foods and don't really have a proper way of handling them other than turning them into waste products.

    Does this help at all? Sorry about your heartburn!

    Thanks.

    So, in keeping with your advice, I'm drinking extra coffee today to force everything out.

    NO NO NO NO NO! The alcohol and chocolate are giving you trouble because it thinks you are putting up a fight. You need to show it that you are on it's side. The only way to do that is by eating more chocolate and drinking more booze.

    It's really all you can do.

    I recommend a steady diet of vodka on the rocks, minus the rocks.

    And if you still think there are too many toxins in your system, try a nice gentle laxative - will get all those toxins out in a few hours.

    You're welcome.

    This seems very sensible and backed up by science.

    Unfortunately I am at work and drinking booze on the job is "frowned upon". Damn The Man :grumble:

    The real horror is that there might have been some candy corn in there.

    more candy

    That's what I was thinking. A little hair of the dog should help.

    1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in 4oz of water. Nasty but works really well for heartburn.

    I think I made up for all the weight I haven't been losing anyway last night. Chocolate, freezer pizza, chocolate, beer, chocolate, cake, chocolate, bourbon, and chocolate. This morning I woke up with horrible heartburn.

    Two questions:

    First: is it the toxins in the candy that are causing my heartburn? And if so how do I get rid of them?

    And: Since the word "burn" is part of heartburn should I log calories burned?

    Thanks
    :flowerforyou:
    OMG! All those late night carbs! You should've spaced them out into 6-8 small meals (or more) and revved up your metabolism instead. It might not be too late to do so today. :drinker:

    So you over ate. For one day. And you upset your stomach a bit.

    You most likely do not have to worry about specific toxins in your food. The body can handle most things really well all by itself. So think about the heart burn next time you're thinking about eating some chocolates, it might help letting them be :) Other than that, don't worry about it, it'll go away again.

    AFAIK you don't burn a substantial amount of extra calories when you have acid reflux. The stomach makes litres of that stuff on a day, so that little bit it's making extra now won't help much.

    Bless your heart.

    ETA: I hear tell that apple cider vinegar stuff works wonders. Drink a liter of that and get back to us OP.

    I'll try that but leave out the vinegar.

    Good call. I had a few of those last night...Angry Orchard...and while they did nothing for my A/R, they made me not care about it, so win.

    This sounds preferable to eating it...

    It's ok. You can set your clock to a different time, because your body goes by what the clock on the wall says.
