Mostly feeling better. A bit of headache. Drinking my water.

I limit sugar because I don't like it. But I've had limited sugar postop.

I have two bottles of Smartwater with electrolytes. In addition to all the Water from earlier.

So wasn't worth the few bites. :-(

I am feeling much better. Thank you. But, was that dumping syndrome?

Are you being facetious or sincere?

Strawberry shortcake...

Sure. That's right. High protein...

I caved and bought a Dove dark chocolate bar. Chocolate was needed appease the raging hormones. The Dove bar fit the bill quite nicely.

Are you talking about not following the postop diet and eating solids when one should still be sipping full liquids or are you talking about just making unhealthy choices once ones sleeve is healed?

I was sleeved by Dr. Aceves this past March. I couldn't be happier with my experience. Good luck to you on your WLS journey.

My delivery ETA is also Friday. :-)

Ha. Lol! And what a great prof pic it is!

Thank you! I didn't have to twist myself into a pretzel to find a "flattering" angle either!!

I did. chocolate. Dark chocolate. Hazelnut chocolate. Notice a theme?

Here is my Mexico adventure. http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/74149-dr-aceves-mexicali-and-me/

I have heard others say they use your initial weight for qualifying you. That said I used Dr. Aceves in Mexicali. He is a wonderful surgeon and I have zero complaints. I researched Mexico for several months repeatedly changing my mind on the right surgeon. There are many well reviewed and respected surgeons in Mx but Dr. Aceves was my best fit. He is a more expensive surgeon, at 8750 for VSG, but you recover in a full service hospital with a surgeon who has years upon years of experience. Good luck in you WLS journey.

Those who had great experiences do realize that those who did not are allowed to share their subpar experience without interference, right? The same applies on the flip side.
