Oh my.. I was already feeling a drink after 1.. even with all this body weight on me now! I don't drink often, but I'm curious too.. I don't want any nasty surprises in a year or so ;)

Yes, I feel it faster. I can have a drink or two over several hours and be OK, but if I drink more than 3, I have had too much.

I got pretty tipsy after two glasses of wine, but I think it's because it's been so long since I've had a drink.

I had 3 glasses of wine at a girls night out last night and I was tipsy. It used to take 6-8 just to get tipsy.

It's pretty funny, I'm such a cheap date now, don't need dinner, get tipsy off 3 wines hahahah

I definitely get a buzz earlier with only 2 or 3 beers. It used to take me a six pack before I would start feeling good. I think the ratio for me is 1beer=3beers, so its good I'm drinking less to get intoxicated.

No change for me. I am still able to drink like before being sleeved. However I can sober up really fast.

No change as far as getting a buzz quicker, but I sober up super fast though.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
