Alot of places dont accept it but you should just try to get your significant other to order something you both can share. Cause trust me I eat out at resturants all the time when I am home. 3 bites and thats a wrap. Left overs for days But it doesnt hurt to have one and see if they accept it. Btw I dont do buffets any more because of that

How Long Before I Can Drink A Soda Or A Zipp Fizz?
Capt Derel replied to mosher62's topic in Food and Nutrition
Oh funny you mention coffee lmao. I been getting new deckhands left and right. They all wake up and say "How do you want your coffee?" I look at them and say "empty". Each one looked at me in confusion and they say "What? A captain that dont drink coffee or smoke cigarettes." they crack me up cause they follow the habits of their superiors and I mess up their program lol. I am 6 months out. Tea gives me heartburn moderately. So I figure if tea does me like that well coffee is gonna run the mill with me so I never touched it since 30 days preop -

Mosher are you sleeved? Nvm I found that you were. Your still early out the gate. I went through a grogy phase but now its hard for me to sleep. Caffiene doesnt sit to well for some reason. Feels like heartburn but in the bottom of your stomach. Its strange. But Like I said. Your energy levels gonna rocket so you really dont need that stuff. I work 12 hour night shifts 28 days straight. No problems here -
I cut up a personel seedless melon and put it in a plastic dish. I eat off that thing for 5 days. But I use sea salt cause I crave it. But thats my biggest vice lol. Plus I only get them once every 2 months so its not that big of a deal. Just make sure you think about adjusting your carb and sodium count before hand

Capt Derel replied to shannonbcaldwell's topic in Food and Nutrition
Nachos are the bomb....especially homemade nachos with wheat tortillias. All you can eat is 3 anyways. Diet sodas = skydiving with a childpacked parachute -
Suggestions On Taking B12
Capt Derel replied to Melissa Attwood Sturgill's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Absorption varies greatly from Injection- Up to 90% Liquid Close to 40 and up to 55% oral Close to 33 and up to 40% Why do drug users prefer to inject over oral? Same principal better benefit from the product My numbers are alittle wrong but not much. When I studied Bioavailability of absorption 12 years ago I saw the chart but this is close enough to what I remember. -

For Those Who Weigh Every Day -
Capt Derel replied to KS Fort Worth's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am guilty of weighing myself everyday. But I do this to see where I stand on a day by day basis. If I stall for 3 days I go back and see what I have been doing wrong according to my fitness pal. I change things up and back on track. The scales a tool. It can be useful if you log everything down everyday. -

Suggestions On Taking B12
Capt Derel replied to Melissa Attwood Sturgill's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I am gonna have to throw this at yall. For 5 months and 2 weeks I took the liquid form. For the last 2 weeks I got the injectables with a slin pin. I feel absolutely way better than the previous 5 1/2 months. Energy is elevated, mood elevated. I am a firm believer in injectable B12. Throw the rest away. I loaded my system with 1ml every day for 7 days then 2x a week there after. -
Well on another note your going to pull something better than them. After your sleeved and "can" eat again. You ARE going to do this. Your going to look at their food and they will look at yours then yall will begin eating. After your 3 bites your going to say "Man I am stuffed, how can yall eat so much" lmao. You gotta understand. People watching me eat makes them feel bad. Its funny because This girl I know starves herself daily. She came eat out with us at a chilis and she ordered the salad. I just fixed me a couple bites off another persons plate and ate that and they could tell that I was stuffed lol. She saw that and quit eating lol. Not my intentions at all but thats just one way people will react. Have fun with it.

Sleeved Aug 13, Trouble With Pills..
Capt Derel replied to Heather Souders's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just crush them up like your doing and mix it in a juice or Water. It gets better. Trust me it does. Give yourself time. But as far as all the meds that you listed save them unless you need them. I am surprized that you dont have antibiotics. That kind of concerns me. -

Any Advice On How To Quit Smoking?
Capt Derel replied to mommybo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Everyone wants to know ---- HOW DO I QUIT SMOKING? Let me tell you what the prescription drug lobbiests dont want you to know about. Theres a product out there that you can legally buy but you can not ingest due to FDA regulations. So what happens behind closed doors is your business. I dont want to know about it. Capish I am going to provide you a link to a source that I KNOW carries legit products. I turned 6 people on to this site and I swear to you that they all quit smoking within a week. Not cause they tried to but because this medicine makes them. It comes in a pump spray bottle. You must spray 2 sprays in your mouth first thing in the morning. They all said it was nasty and chased it with Water. If you read the description it says its a CB1 Receptor BLOCKER. What receptor in the brain does nicotine attach itself to? Haha it the CB1 receptor. Also if your familiar with a 9 panel drug screen, every single one of those adhere to the CB1 receptor also. Kinda neat. You can Wiki all of the info. They do have a few bad sides but none of the people I know had any of the side effects. http://www.stenlabs.com/index.php?p=product&id=117 I am in no way paid or affiliated with this company nor any other but I feel that the truth should be out. There are products available that work better than any others on the market due to the lobbiests paying the FDA to keep not approving the medicines. Its sad but thats how America works. Interesting huh -
