And thanks to each of you for your input.

I love this forum. everyone is going through the same thing, but the stories are all so varied.

Someone told me that Doritos are a terrible thing to eat with the sleeve, worse than alcohol for your new stomach. Obviously, they are fattening, but that is not what I am referring to. Anyone??

that's great !! my new friend here in Tallahassee just had her's done yesterday down in Mexico. She emailed me today and she is ok, just the normal stuff, soreness, sleep habits off a bit, thirsty, etc.... she is a member on the other sleeve forum http://www.gastricsleeve.com/. Congratulations for your date ! I lost so much so quickly, but have hit a plateau right now. God, you hardly eat anything, I swear, you almost forget all about food after a couple weeks.

Have you set a date for your VSG yet??

Ok, so I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times, but I am 5 weeks out and doing fine. Is it silly to have one alcoholic beverage 6 weeks after surgery (not several drinks, just one?) a small vodka and tomato juice is what I would like to try. thanks.

I was wondering what is the most weight loss ever by someone who had sleeve surgery done. Any trivia buffs out there know of (or heard of) any crazy, amazing results ??
