Heartburn?
Yeah I should clarify, it's bad, but manageable. I take Prilosec in morning and ratidine at night. I have a reclining bed...it's all just expensive. And yest still better than being fat

Intense Travel 5 Weeks Post Sleeve Surgery
5 weeks is plenty enough time, you should even be on solids by then because stomach should be healed. You don't have to worry about busting a stitch at that point. I was doing 5 mile hikes at 4 weeks out and felt fine, just keep up with the protein. Safe travels

Jfc all, you all wrong, some doctor good, some bad, he'll- they don't even know what causes cholesterol, are we really giving them the credit they deserve?

Sleepy time
Any sleep eaters out there? If so, what have you gotten into. ( just for fun). I am a huge sleep eater, I get into Cheetos, ice cream, a bite of this and that. And yes, I know the solution is to not have them in the house to begin with, but tell that to my fat ass husband

New "addiction"?
Addiction? I replaced my thoughts of food with thoughts of vaping-nonstop. Havnt picked it up yet though.

"You'd be much prettier if you lost weight"
Sounds like a shallow bitty. our society teaches us that we ALL would be prettier thinner, she's only repeating what she sees on the kardashians, don't listen to it!

Newly Sleeved as of yesterday- how did you know how much to eat?
Liquids go in and go out, they don't sit in stomach at all. Refer to the barium swallow test, does anyone remember that crap just hanging out in the stomach? Liquids you should have no problem, drink away but don't chug, or you are gonna puke

My one chance, don't want to screw it up!

Found a new protein bar I like
It's probably good because it has hardly any protein in it...

BMI 31-32
Don't take laxatives, you will dehydrate yourself at a critical time. I didn't follow the recommended pre op diet until the day before...well not even that, 10 hours before my surgery I took a sleeping pill and sleep ate 2 candy bars from the hotel fridge. I was the first to get surgery the next day, not a word was said and no complications. I am not suggesting this is a good idea, however, don't worry so much. Get good eating habits before and you will be a better success after

BMI 31-32
BMI of 29 and went for it, sick of being fat my whole life. The one and only negative I have is the 24/7 GERD. It's not all roses, but much easier to lose weight

Fear of STRETCHING Sleeve!
Stretching you shouldn't worry about, you should worry about polishing a large size snack bag of Cheetos off in one sitting without filling a thing. So easy to still eat crap on the sleeve, not so much stretching it

Clothing size
I find myself feeling a bit defensive LOL since you put size 4's in quotes! I guarantee you I am a 4 in almost everything I pull off the rack any brand. Want me to send pic of the labels? Jk mostly but feeling a bit hurt! Sorry I wasn't trying to attack anyone, just a tad suspicious..I believe you I believe you, maybe I am just jealous of y'all size 4 skinny biatches

Double booked!?
Mine was an assembly line, there were 5 people at the same time. They prep you for surgery, and the cutting begins. One after the other. It was Mexico though....
