I am going to Moterrey Mexico on June 15 and getting banded June 17. I am anxious/ nervous and excited but wondering that I come from a social family and friends and includes out for food and drinks and sometimes we have a to good of a time and one to many cocktails. I know the food is gonna be a much smaller portion and no more late nights but has anyone gone and had a few coctails and was it ok?

Also the slimmed what is that and how does that feel? Is it hard to breathe?

No, sliming doesn't hurt. It's just the food that got stuck coming back up. The "slime" helps to bring it up.

You can drink alcohol but it will inhibit your weight loss as alcohol carries a lot of calories with it. A glass of wine on occasion isn't terrible but you have to make the right choices regarding what and how much you drink if you want to see results from the band.

Good luck.

Yeah, the sliming isn't the painful portion... Whatever you get stuck that causes the sliming can be a pretty painful situation.

You'll be fine!! Nerves are to be expected! Let us know how you are!

Thanks I am off soon
