What's your experience been with alcohol after surgery?
Tssiemer1 replied to LisaAdams50's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I drink mixed drinks. Fruity sweet drinks make me sick now (used to LOVE Maibu and pineapple juice). I drink a short whiskey sour or margarita (just tequila, lime juice and a little sweet and sour) and I do well. I get a quick buzz that goes away in a couple hours. I kinda like it this way. I don't even finish a short drink anyway. I always count the calories and carbs and I make sure I've met all my other goals and make sure I've eaten sufficiently. Oh and I've only had 2 drinks since being cleared at 3 months. -
I did not.

Oh and a food processor to puree things. -

I spend a lot less on food now but right after surgery and for the preop diet the shakes got expensive but it probably averages out. -

Any "fizziness" hurts me. Alkaseltzer plus hurts me now. -
I never had to give up coffee.

Well. I think I finally no longer regret my surgery!!

In America, legal action would get you what you want. Don't know about NHS in England. I tend to expect the worse from the government...Now that I have Clostridium Difficile, and may have infected my family, I am re thinking my stance regarding legal action. If this drags on for months or if I wind up with even more serious problems such as bowel surgery, I may have no choice but to look into this. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Omg I had c diff for 3 weeks. Finally tested negative today!!

Ladies I need your advice regarding 'Periods' (sorry gents)!

I was on my period day of surgery. They did not let me wear a pad or tampon. No panties either. They said they would put down some chucks. -

I'm 12 weeks this week. Losing a lot of hair! Been sick with c diff for 2 weeks. I've lost almost 70 lbs. -
I have spoken with my surgeon and his PA about it. I see my psychiatrist tomorrow. The PA said what I'm feeling is normal (he also said the diarrhea was normal but that turned out to be C diff). The surgeon wants me to eat 1000 calories a day and eat 2-3 ounces every two hours. I told him when I force myself to eat I throw up. I had a bit of an appetite at the hospital and ate 3 meals there (over 4 days). Since I've been out (2 days) I've had 1 ounce of jerky, 1 tbsp of peanut butter and celery and an ounce of tilapia. Which is more than the 2 weeks I was sick with C diff.

I was in the hospital most of last week for C Diff. I was able to finally tell my husband my regrets. I didn't tell anyone for fear of their reaction ("I told you so" "that was a lot of money wasted" "you chose it".) I am sick when my sleeve is empty or has food in it. I prefer it to be empty so I hardly eat. It's easier. Eating is a chore and being with others when they eat makes me sick too. It's come between me and a lot of people including my husband.

I regret it. I'm sicker now than I ever was obese.

What did you just call me?

Tiny tot. Lol. It was a guy at work who hadn't seen me in 6 months. I was down 50lbs at that point. No one really noticed until then. -
How long if diagnosed with sleep apnea will I have to wait for surgery? Or do I not have to wait?
Tssiemer1 replied to Aaaaaa1234's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was diagnosed in November and didn't get my machine until March. Had surgery in May.
