it all gets better eventually. No sense in forcing it... within 4-5 weeks you will be eating like an adult again... at around 6-7 weeks I was already eating adult foods but just much smaller quantities, much slower, and actually chewed the food. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Methamphetamine is great for weight loss. I'm not sure if you admit that you recently used that you will be approved through insurance. I remember having to sign that I was substance free, including alcohol, for a specific period of time but I don't remember how long. The psychologist also asked me 30 different ways about past alcohol/drug use. I happened to never try anything other than alcohol so I was safe. My only addiction was to greasy food.
