    I had a drink a few weeks ago for a concert (beyonce).. I was 7 weeks out, had a bottle of wine... I was able to tolerate alcohol just as easy as before, and I'm still standing. People like to

    Put the fear of God into new bariatric patients to try and get you to live a holy life of Protein and veggies...

    I'm young, I like to enjoy my life. Drinking is fine, of course in moderation. Glad all went okay!

    It helped me a lot to read other people's experiences, so in case it may be helpful for you... here's a blog post I wrote and a video about why I made this decision.

    Good luck to you!

    I watched your video too! Even though I'm post op (7 weeks) I still find myself fascinated with people and their own individual stories.. So glad you managed to get approved with your insurance! I'll be favouriting your blog and catching up on your updates hehe

    I was hungover yesterday and really fancied sweet and salted popcorn.. I bought a big bag and managed to eat almost half! Tasted far more salty then I remember but was gorgeous! No problems, no sickness. All you can do is try it.. Go for it =]

    Oh good! Hungover AND popcorn! Good for you!
    Yeah, good for me. I'm 28.. I choose to live my life. OH WOW I've had popcorn and a few drinks.. I'm going to fail, I forgot you were a doctor, and weren't just a person with your story, and what you did. My mistake. I've seen you on these boards and your general attitude.. Don't come for me.

    I was on your side!! What did I miss?

    LMFAO don't. Just don't. I woke up clearly on the wrong side of the bed, and the poster before you was being sarcastic.. And I thought you were doing the same. I'm sorry if I misread it =]

    Firstly, you look great.. But secondly, remember who's been there when you were bigger and loved you regardless. Remember who helped you through surgery and recovery.. And has put up with this process and held your hand every step of the way. New attention is good, but remember who was there and what that means.

    I'm not sure what's going on but seriously I haven't felt like this in 6 weeks.. It's a hunger that keeps coming back, I'll have to contact my doctor tomorrow and ask for a check up or something because this can't be normal. Hopefully it's a one off and tomorrow will be back to normal.. I could be mistaking swelling of stomach pain for hunger I don't know but I'm concerned

    I searched to see if I could find anything on this topic and didn't really find anything... Some days I forget to eat and have to force myself to get enough Protein in (and calories) but then days like today.. Nothing is getting rid of this hunger.. (It's 2:49pm and I've had 500 kals already)

    I just want to know if this is common and other people experience this? Pleaseeeee tell me I'm not alone. I'm 6 weeks in
