I am only a month post op right now but I have noticed this with sugar. Everything sweet is like... too much, and I was a major sweets eater before surgery, probably 80% of my extra weight was put on with sweet junk food. I cant stand even a little bit of crystal light anymore, I just drink tea or water now. Juice is horrible, even the smell of it grosses me out...

Day three of my liquid diet and it's been going pretty good. I don't trust my scale at all cause it's saying I'm 258 and yesterday at the doctor I was 263. I don't think it's possible to lose THAT much in less than a day? O_O I dk. But whatever. lol I'm not complaining. I've been obsessing with looking at people's before and after's. That's seriously all I've been doing since like 7am. I like finding younger people around my age and seeing how they've done. Especially those who've had the sleeve. 12 more days to go!

Thank you for that honest response.

I had my first drink 3 weeks out. I was at my sisters house, she didn't know about the surgery. She pored me a shot, and I knew if I didn't drink it the questions would start. I got buzzed off of that one shot...but it didn't hurt me. After that I waited a few more months to drink again. It still effects me more now then ever before. I only drink socially, and I am currently 20 pounds from my goal weight...not my surgeons goal which I passed 70 pounds ago, but my own goal. As for cross over addictions, it is very easy to develop them so we all got to watch ourselves! Good luck!
