janet ruth got a reaction from annie93 in Where does everyone live? (General area)
I had Dr Ricardo Bonner in Katy, TX do my sleeve. Fabulous results. Great Herman Hosp in Memorial City. It was done Nov 2017 & I’m down to 145 from 190. Still 20 to lose but it’s slower going now.

Orchids, I had the sleeve.

After 3 months I experimented with white wine on a cruise. It was more intoxicating than pre-surgery, so one glass was my limit. It’s now 7 months after surgery & I tried a margarita. My stomach didn’t have the ability to metabolize tequila anymore! I felt a physical reaction in the stomach & had diarrhea after! Not a good thing to try for the first time if you’re not close to a toilet!

I'll have a bag of air popped popcorn over a day as a snack. Only 200 calories worth but lots of salt so it's an occasional treat.

I just had the gastric sleeve surgery on Nov 3rd. I feel pretty good after three days, but the first day was excruciating. Very surprised @ the intensity of gas pains. I’ve added some creamy Soups to the diet and it’s helped break the monotony of Protein Drinks. I added Water & low salt bouillon to canned Soup & jolted it a bit. Feeling optimistic.

I’ve seen vitamin patches on the internet but don’t know if they’re as effective as oral. I’ve used Citrical chewables and they get the job done while wetting the whistle.

janet ruth reacted to ProfessorSlim in New here! 3 weeks post-op and down 18lbs!
It really is great, and feeling the effects of less gherlin...I am not hungry, I am not always thinking about food, or grabbing a snack when I drive somewhere, or what snack I can get in the evenings.
I am just not interested in food, just a bit here and there, but a little bit of Soup or cream of wheat, or sipping a Protein shake...and bam, not hungry, not thinking about eating.
Wish I did this ages ago!!
