HELP! I'm so frustrated by my plateau
SleevedMetal replied to RussT's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Take a breath and relax. Your weight loss will fluctuate. As long as you take your vitamins, eat your protein and drink your liquids--you'll be fine. Don't be discouraged when you don't lose as much as you think you should lose. As long as the scale keeps going down, you're going in the right direction. -
I waited about six months and found out shortly that my tolerance was two drinks tops. I'm a year out and still haven't had a beer. I would avoid carbonation and alcohol for at least six months. Just remember everything in moderation. Alcohol has no nutritional value, so it is best to avoid it if you can.

When did you start drinking alcohol postop?
SleevedMetal replied to krissyleigh's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I waited six months. Went on all inclusive, so it was hard not to drink. I learned that my new limit was two and to make sure there was a lounge chair nearby because it almost always put me to sleep. -

Have a bathroom question
SleevedMetal replied to Tweety40's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I didn't have a bowel movement the entire first week, so I consider you fortunate that you were able to pass anything. -
I have to get dressed tomorrow ????

Sweat pants and track pants. It was depressing having to put back on the corporate garb after my disability ended.
