  3. chell im going thru the same thing & at 5 weeks too! great question! i would also like to know how many calories we should be getting in as well. since i snack all the time, i wonder if im eating TOO much?
  4. thankyou all for the replies (good&bad, lol)! im getting the sense that ill find out about my alcohol tolerances on my own. when im ready, of course, & very slowly & wisely. i dont feel too bad about it anymore. thanx guys!
  5. hey guys! I'm about 4 weeks out & I've been trying to get my head wrapped around the feeling of not being able to "party" like most my age. I say this because i know i'll never indulge in alcohol like my peers. I feel like I'm going to be missing the experiences and fun I should be having. anyone feel the same? (don't get me wrong, I don't regret my sleeve AT ALL)

  11. my whole process took 3months, couldve been 2&1/2 but i chose to have my sleeve 2weeks later (i felt like i was mentally unprepared). but yeah, a week after my doc visit, i was approved by insurance & scheduled my surgery
  12. heyyy! we're kind of on the same track. I'm 2 weeks post-op too! & I'm equally as excited!
  13. no, no hernia repair. I can't believe it could mean "full", i only took 2 bites! lol, but i did stop eating right after the pain started. thank you for the help guys(:
