How does alcohol affect you different now?
scorpio2479 replied to ShrinkingInSeattle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No change for me. I am still able to drink like before being sleeved. However I can sober up really fast. -
My only issues seem to be w/ beef & lettuce.

I have been dealing w/ a pain on the left side of my back since being sleeved. I was sleeved on 9.20.12. At first I thought it was due to constipation, but it's not. It's also not a constant pain. It seems to start hurting if I stand for a period of time esp. When walking. Has anyone else experienced this? I've seen my Dr about it, but no conclusion on what could be causing it.

Pain on left side of back
scorpio2479 replied to scorpio2479's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wonder what it is??? I've tried figuring it out, but cannot pinpoint what causes it. -
Pain on left side of back
scorpio2479 replied to scorpio2479's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have already spoken to my surgeon,so I guess its time to seek out another dr's opinion??? The pain is on my left back under where my rib cage is. If u press on it the pain subsides. I was just curious if anyone else had the same pain around the same location. -

Think Thin are my favorite protein bars.

Does anyone eat gluten free? Since surgery I have been as gluten free as possible. Prior to being sleeved I ate breads all the time. I had the mentality that if I did not eat a bread product I was not full:-(

I went Sun & ordered the 1lb of snow crab legs w/ asparagus. I had the butter too. I do not deprive myself:-) I keep it in moderation. Oh & I had leftovers that my hubby gladly ate up.

I ran into this issue as well. I like to take a more natural approach w/ issues like this. I added flaxseed oil supplements daily & consume chia seeds.
