Drinking Question
Ok so i havent had the sleeve done yet. I know i wont be able to drink as much or at all for awhile which is fine lol. I dont drink much now but i could drink with the best of them lol So my question is how much can u tolerate after and im not talking about an all night alchol fest. Like maybe getting a few drinks for a bday or somethin. Just curious.

Who Are You?
Well my name is David im 29- about to be 30 this week. No kids and single. I just ended my contract in a real-estate position of 2 yrswill be back at the begining of the yr. decided to finally take the steps for surgery. I live in Dallas, Texas wouldnt mind going west though maybe one day lol. I am into all kinds of things cars active in my car club, paintball, college football (big oregon ducks fan here), tx rangers fan, mma, tattoos, and lots of other stuff. Just cant wait to do most of it. I have been looking into getting this done for some time now. Over the last 2 yrs even more serious my grandmother (who raised me) used to encourage me to get it done. I was always the big kid teased until i made the jokes first. I used to smoke its been about 4 months since i quite so its time to move on to bigger changes.

Blab To Everyone, Or "close To The Vest?"
I told my friends and fam that im doing it. Its going to be that extra push if i think about backing out. Im doing this for me if they dont like it to bad. I have been lucky that every1 has been supportive about doing it but i also welcome the negitive. I have gotten alot of questions though. I guess telling them was like having more people in my corner. Dont be embarrased u tried it didnt work they dont understand or know what u have done thus far.

Im At My Sleep Study
Good luck. I had a sleep study done. Its hard to sleep at 8pm with insomnia lol. They woke me up every 30 min (mask, check finger sensor, another mask, chin strap, ect) then the goo the put on your head. My results were not good. They called me the next day for my machine. I have been using my cpap every night for the last couple months. I can tell a difference with it.
