Any issues with using US $ in TJ?
Make sure you do not flaunt your money. They tried charging me way over what I thought was reasonable for souvenirs cause they saw the cash I had in my wallet by accident and then my credit cards didn't work, so they let me have what I wanted for the cash in my wallet. Also I had 100 stolen in the hospital so hide your funds well or don't take more than $50 with you. I was clueless and didn't hide my funds. It was just in my wallet.

DO don;t eat mushy slop. Eat real foods that are soft. Make Ricotta cheese and sauce with mozzarella on top. Microwave for a minute or put in oven and there ya go. dinner.

Is it possible I have already stretched my new sleeve?
I think it depends on the type of food. I can eat 6 oz of yogurt in 20 min, It takes me the same amount of time to eat 2 oz of chicken or beef Jerky. Its not stretched. I am sure your not self abusing.

Is anyone else having a hard time with compliments...?
I have a hard time accepting them from certain people. From People that were positive and joyful from the start I can take tose ones no problems. Its like we are celebrating every size difference and everything positive. But from Random people or people I don;t know very well, I do say aww thanks and smile and then talk about them to get it off me. Your right you need to smile, beam and say thank you its been a struggle but I feel great and that answers alot of questions.

Capacity and healing
No your not misunderstanding. People say things like I feel like I am eating all day when they are new , its because they are! But they are drinking liquids all day and don;t realize how little it actually is. But yeah they say they feel like they can eat more because they are drinking all day.

Price? Negotiable?
yeah cause everything you read on the internet is true.... Its probably not that much of a discount. I am a realtor and I don't discount my fees often. I am worth my fee's and so is your surgeon.

sugary food
Nope I am the opposite. I would buy 3-4 bags of different M &M's and eat them in bed while I wathed TV in the morning or at night now even a little apple juice makes me cramp so bad. Only thing you can do is not put it in your home and you need ot envoke your will power. Is it worth it? ITs not.

Food is kinda gross when I slow down to actually taste it
I agree. Wait till you have to eat slow and your not even hungry. Its almost irritating to eat now. I only eat a few foods because I truly dislike eating. I love cottage cheese and blackberries right now. I would rather drink all day than eat anything. First off I have zero desire to eat and second its takes so long ot eat a meal and I get antsy. LOL I loved the liquid stage of my post op. I go back to that often.

nsv for me!
HAHA I do the same thing. I have this pair of Levis that I loath because they have no streach and are size 18. In old navy I am at least a 14, so I keep putting on the levis hoping they will soon fit and finally they did, so I wore them out to dinner and ran some errands and I slept in them cause I was not gonna take those dang jeans off.
