Taking a cruise after being sleeved

[AKessler731 2]

Have any of you cruised since being sleeved? I'll be having my surgery sometime in the next 6 weeks and I have a cruise already booked for July 4th weekend. This will be out 3rd cruise and on the past two I ate, and ate, and ate some more. I know this time will be different because I wont be able to. What was your experience like cruising without all the food? lol I know that sounds like it may be a really silly questions but it seemed like a lot of the fun that was had was based on either eating or drinking. And I don't think I'll be drinking because I've heard weird things about drinking alcohol after being sleeved and I've also heard a lot of people can't tolerate anything sweet. So, I'm just curios what other people have thought about cruising after being sleeved. Thanks!

I had no issues at all. I went in November, so about 6 months out. At that point, my relationship with food has completely changed, and I no longer wanted to overeat like I did before. There are plenty of healthy choices, with fish, chicken, eggs, vegetables etc. available at every meal. Enjoy!
