hmm lets see... i stopped work at the same time as when classes ended for us to prepare for exams. there's a kopitiam near my home but the coffee tastes funny. The best kopitiam coffee I've tasted so far are all in ChinatownOriginally posted by the Bear:why no kopitiam coffee near your uni?
i may go get some tomorrow... i need to go pay the fees for my Pilates classes
may go throw a few games at the alleys while i'm there
-
aha.. got kopitiam but lousy coffee
sounds like us guys at work... morning breakfast, we'd rather eat lousy food than go to another kopitiam with better food but lousy coffee...
then lunchtime, we rarely go further than the market coz there's a stall there with good coffee
i'm dying here... think i'll get myself a can of pepsi max for the caffeine

coffee is the elixir of life!
eat an apple instead! it contains as much (or more, i dunno) caffeine as a cup of coffee! -
no it doesn't
it wakes you up because you are chewing and the sugars give you a sugar buzz
pepsi max doesn't taste very good....
anyway, what do you order? mine is usually "kopi-o siew tai"Originally posted by MooKu: coffee is the elixir of life!

gastric cannot take caffeine...Originally posted by MooKu:hm you are caffeine-intolerant right...? poor thing, to be denied one of the greatest pleasures of life.
did you try decaf coffee? 
how come you cannot drink coffee arh.. could it be due to a combination of coffee and something else?
drink le will have gastric pain, diarrhoea..

doc asked me to stop lor.. -
coffee is a bit diuretic
well, bbb, eat well... when you're hungry, don't ignore it... eat something.. after some time, your stomach will be back working normally again
also, eat things like barely ripe bananas.. they're almost ripe but not about yet.. according to some docs, they are good for the stomach... also, stuff like papaya help too
most of all, try to eat regularly...Originally posted by browniebaobao:gastric cannot take caffeine...

what happened?
bananas.. supposed to rebuild the layer of mucous in the stomach which stops the acids from eating away the stomach
not sure if it's true.. i'm going to go google it -

ahh it's kinda complicated and i'm not sure how to explain, but it's keeping me from leaving the house alone unless it's absolutely necessary, like school, which starts next monday.
but generally i'm fine -
a quick google says "bananas"
i guess no need the semi-ripe ones
it says:
Bananas work their protective magic in two ways: First, substances in bananas help activate the cells that compose the stomach lining, so they produce a thicker protective mucus barrier against stomach acids. Second, other compounds in bananas called s help eliminate bacteria in the stomach that have been pinpointed as a primary cause of stomach ulcers.
so, bbb, try to eat bananas.. who knows? you may grow to like them -
