I have had occasional drinks since about six weeks out. I have even used a small amount of diet cola for a mixer with no issues as the fizz is gone pretty fast. No issues except a little burping - but nothing as glorious as I did before surgery anyway. Contrary to what I've heard, alcohol doesn't affect me any differently than it did pre-surgery. And it really goes good with my cigars. Yes ...I said it. Life is good.

I'm getting sleeved Thursday. But my nutritionist goes by the 60/60/60 rule:
60 grams of Protein per day minimum
60 oz of Water per day
60 min of walking
With the carbs and sugar:
Carbs 4 grams per serving maximum
Sugar 4 grams per serving maximum
Get good quality Protein Shakes like Isopure, Optimum Nutrition, Dymatize, ect.
Hope this helps!!

Everything went well!! I was sleeved yesterday @ 0730. Just started my 2oz of Water every 1hour. If all goes well ill start with Protein at 10:00

I was sleeved yesterday and started on the Water and Protein this morning. They wanted 1oz of water and 1oz of protein every hour. It sounds soooooo much easier than to do it. I started water at 6am an protein at 1030 and so far I've only gotten 7oz of water and 2oz of protein. And with just that I feel like I just finished a steak dinner it absolutely crazy!!!
