Why are people so judgmental. Honestly a drink or two is not going to hurt a normal sleeve. Yes it is empty calories and could hinder weight loss. Yes abusing alcohol can cause liver problems. She will only live once. If she wants a drink knowing what might happen so be it. You made the decision not to. That was a healthier and better decision for you. Why do we need to judge others for their morals. This ganging up on someone and name calling really makes me sad. http://discountdesignsolutions.gostorego.com/new-shirts.html

I started drinking week two with no problems. Good luck with your experiment. I know you will be fine.

OK I have this irrational fear that the surgeon put a band in me instead of the sleeve like I wanted. I know there are certain things like everytime I go to the docs office they all mention how is my band. I also feel like I have a band and I can feel someone that I think is a fill site. How would I know the difference? I am very scared.

I started drinking week two. I drink four to six glasses of scotch a night. I love the sleeve I get drunk so much sooner.

I think I looked into that one and the sugar free slurpee actually has a bunch of net carbs. I would not get the huge size but the small size would be ok I am sure.

Thank you for the responses. I will call my doc on Monday. I have been getting so worried about every little thing. I call my doc and nurse about 10 times since surgery. He finally gave me xanax. But fainting is no joke. wow that was scary.

2.5 weeks post op. So several times since surgery I have been laying or sitting down and stood up and almost passed out. Yesterday I went out side and mowed the lawn for twenty minutes and thought I was going to die. My head rush was so extreme I could feel it in my head and eyes. I came inside and fainted on the living room floor. I woke up and my dog was licking me. Any ideas?

My dog eats his puke. He likes it. But my doc did say if you are throwing up it could be a leak. Make sure you do not have left shoulder pain, a fever, or abdominal pain. All are signs.
