Angelica Marti 10 Posted December 30, 2016 Hi everybody! I probably will have my sleeve in February I'm going for a month and a half to Colombia I wish to take advantage that I'm there also for travel around a little bit. My question is this... AFTER HOW MUCH TIME AFTER BEING SLEEVED MOVEMENTS AND STUFF ARE NORMAL? AND PAIN IS GONE? I'm planning to get sleeved and after 20 days travel and go to the coast for have a relaxing holiday what you think about it? Also cuz my best friend lives there and I wish to see her and be around enjoying the place I won't do extreme activities I thank you in advance for all your comments and advises ????

trekker954 421 Posted December 30, 2016 I travel a lot for work. You will be fine after 3 weeks if as you say its a relaxing visit. Most important will you have a kitchen? Preparation will be the most important and who knows what you can get in Columbia. I was able to find a GNC in Mexico while I was there and purchased some of their pre made Protein drinks. You'll still be needing to supplement your diet at 3 weeks. Heck I'm 5 months and still supplementing mine with Gen Pro. You may want to pick some of that up. Tasteless and mixes into anything and gives you 30 grams. You're diet at 3 weeks will be very small and limited. You shouldn't be attempting to go out to dinner, no alcohol. Like I said, if you have a full kitchen and can supply it like you do at home, you should be fine. I was not cleared for exercise or lifting until six weeks. So keep that suitcase light or have someone carry it. Plan food/drinks for your flight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
