    Booze!!

    I can drink any alcohol but the sugary mixers make me feel like crap. Beer doesn't hurt like everyone scared me into thinking would happen. I don't have it often and sip it slow and only have one. I found out the hard way that my alcohol tolerance is way low. Just take it slow and you'll find out what works for YOU.

  4. Yes I had a hiatal hernia repair along with my sleeve. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  5. Yes, mine was super bad for a few months after surgery. I had to make sure I ate something every 2 hours or it was super uncomfortable even with PPI meds twice per day. I'm 10 months out now and down to 1 PPI per day. I still get acid feeling in tummy now and then but it's not constant anymore. It has gotten much better. Good luck!!

  6. I am 10 months out and today I made my goal. I'm so happy with my results and wish I would have done this sooner! My surgeon thinks I will probably lose more yet but I am so happy where I'm at. I have lost 102 pounds. Whoooo-hoooo!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Endometrial ablation

    I had endometrial ablation one month prior to my sleeve. I am 10 months post gastric sleeve and still get my period-I wasn't one of the lucky people who don't ever get it again. But it's very light so I guess I can't complain. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  8. I love my Hydro Flask, keeps beverages ice cold with no sweating. I always use a straw, no air issues for me. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using the BariatricPal App

    Clothing Sizes: What do they even mean anymore?!?!?

    I am also proud to say I am out of the black and grey life and have moved out of my comfort zone to color in my life. It's awesome! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using the BariatricPal App

    What's your favorite water bottle?

    I love my Hydro Flask. I cannot drink Water unless it's ice cold. I can even leave this thing in a 90 degree car for a few hours and come back to still having ice in my water. It also doesn't sweat and comes in fun colors. I am getting rid of all my other water bottles! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using the BariatricPal App
  11. I had terrible GERD after my sleeve with hernia repair. I was taking a double dose of PPI's for 4 months post op. My stomach burned so much it kept me up at night. Now I am 6 months post on and like magic I have NO problems anymore. I am down to 1 PPI per day now and I'm thinking soon I'll be off all together. It's almost like I had a over production of stomach acid after surgery and my body has finally figured out I don't need all of it anymore. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using the BariatricPal App

    Portable Protein Shake

    I bought these at costco trying to be cheap. I hate the flavor and should have just paid the extra $5.00 for the Premier Protein. Now I have 17 more of these to drink.. Icky! Lesson learned-stick with what you like. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using the BariatricPal App

    Things you wish you'd known.

    I wish I would have known that recovering after this surgery was not going to be a piece of cake. I was so happy I took 4 weeks off work. But It was soooooooo worth it! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using the BariatricPal App
