I tell people that I have had too completely change the way that I look at food, which is absolutely the truth.

Anyone else tired after eating? I feel as though I need to take a nap after I eat every meal. It doesn't last long, maybe a 20-30 minutes, but man is it annoying.

I had a drink at 5 weeks out. I had some kind of vodka martini and I was hammered after about half of it. My husband ended up finishing it. I have found that I don't have a "threshold" of a buzz anymore I'm either drunk or I'm not. I get drunk quick and it wears off quick. I tried it at home first also just because I think it is a good idea to try everything at home first if you can just because you dont know how you body is going to react.

Could you be pregnant?

I am a firefighter and went back to active duty with no restrictions after 13 days. The first week after a surgery was hard and I wasnt sure that I would be ready, but after the sixth day I started to get a liitle bit better everday.

I keep saying this to myself over and over! I am roughly 11 weeks out and have lost 30 pounds. Which I know is fantabulous!!! However, No one has said anything to me yet about noticing anything, which is a little disappointing I must admit.

Anyone have any tips on how to eat slower? For some reason this is the hardest thing for me to adapt to.

I'm game. I live in Lenexa.

I am 2 days post-op and am having a hard time drinking anything Everytime I take a sip my stomach spasms and cramps up. It doesn't matter what it is I am drinking or wether it is hot or cold. Any advice?

Anxious and excited.

I wish you had met me because i had been sleeved on December 26!!! I go on January 10.....so excited and ready. How are you doing so far?

I am with Dr. Hoehn also. Scheduled for January 10. Can't get here soon enough. I am also self pay so things have progressed very fast. I am psyched. I have my second appointment tomorrow and start my preop diet on Thursday.
