Top 10 Things I Have Learned in My First Sleeved Week.

[JanetPRN 496]

In my first 7 days being sleeved, the top 10 things I have learned :

1) In the world of competitive sleeping, I am a Gold Medalist. I can (& do) nap anytime, anywhere.

2) I am hanging up my stethoscope. My new fulltime job is to "sip, sip, sip". Staying hydrated is hard work.

3) The sounds coming from my new stomach are not lady like.

4) I am no longer a bashful burper.

5) Daytime TV sucks.

6) Not every belly twinge is a potential leak. I am a nurse, so I always look at the worst case health scenarios first. Hard habit to break.

7) Isopure gags me, but is tolerable if made into SF Jello.

8) Old Navy makes super comfy yoga pants, even if I never assume a "Lotus" pose.

9) Clear liquid diets are doable for a few days. My favorite flavor is blue.

and last, but definitely not least, as a wise forum member once advised me:

10) Never trust a shart!

Amen, sister. And you will be yoga-ing in those pants before you know it. My exercise clothes are finally being used for more than warming the couch. ON PURPOSE!

~ The last bite that you know will put you over the edge, will haunt you for at least 30 minutes after.

(Took me a few times to learn that lesson!!!!) The worst was an egg roll!!!! Burping up pork & cabbage is not fun!!!
