Alcohol
paul... i have heard that some cant handle beer but i can just fine! ive had no problems with it. also hard alcohol goes down great i just went to vegas a couple weeks ago and all i did was drink there and it was ok. the only thing i stopped taking was shots. because i dont have much food to soak up alcohol i drink a lot slower!

Mikes Hard Lemonade
Is this carbonated? Has anyone had it and been ok? I havent tried ANYTHING carbonated yet, but I am going to a Mariners baseball game next weekend, just wondering if this is something I can drink since I havent tried beer....let me know if u have tried and whether u had problems or not. I mean, they serve wine at the game but I would just feel weird. lol

Tried cheating--dont do it!
SO i tried cheating. i know...horrible. But anyway i took 2 bites of chicken (i am on liquids/mush) and OH WOW it was the MOST HORRIBLE PAIN i have ever had. i thought i was going to have a heart attack! lol I was driving and I swore it was going to get caught and I would have to try and give myself the heimlick manuever!! it was horrible. Then I puked it up. ew. I wont ever cheat again and I dont recommend it!

Regarding pre-banding psych eval--what did you say?
Going to my psych eval was weird but kinda fun. The doc ended up thinking i am spoiled and pretty conceited but whatever. I love myself and I am not ashamed of it. I just told him when I wanted something I couldnt have I would look forward to the end result.

Probably not the place to say it but...
Being in Radiology we have to move a lot of patients around and lift them etc. I told my instructor that I had surgery not what kind though. It is no ones business if I dont want to tell them. And when they asked what kind i just said "just surgery" they got the hint and said "say no more" . I dont see how they could kick u out of the program, I mean what if you had to have emergency surgery of some sort? Anyway, good luck!!!

Probably not the place to say it but...
Hey I was kinda in the same situation. I am in Radiology school so I had to go to my clinicals 4 days after surgery on a Monday. It was rough but I made it thru the whole day. Though Tuesday the techs sent me home cuz they said I looked so miserable. they gave me 2 days off and I went back fine on Thursday. You will be tired but probably be able to make it!

What do all the skinny people do?!
i had a really rough preop diet as well. basically water, crystal light, jello, popcicles and broth. it sucks. still doing it after the surgery.,, BUT i was pretty proud when the doc told me how good and soft and easy to work with my liver was, i was glad i stuck to it (OK well i cheated ONCe and ate at a wedding and had 2 beers but thats it it will be worth it in the end!!

++got the band, and still gaining weight ++++
i am so glad this was posted. i feel like i could eat anything and im 2 weeks out. i wasnt sure if that was normal or because i dont have my restriction yet. i dont really eat much cuz im supposed to be on a liquid diet still for 2 more weeks. but i dont freak if i get some bites of food with my soup either. im glad its normal.
