Default Some thoughts...add yours too!

It's funny the stuff that goes through your mind sometimes..but here's a thought especially for newbie wls patients---

after the surgery your --MOUTH-- holds more than your pouch!!!
(therefore the small bites! and chew chew! & sip sip slowly!)

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

It scares me to think that a regular stomach can hold up to half a gallon .
Nope, I am never gong to test that limit.

Right around the time my type 2 was diagnosed I used to get soooo thirsty. And well I did not know I was diabetic and was drinking regular soda and stuff at that time.. I would be so thirsty I would be gulping down drink. I could hear it slosh when I walked. So I can believe your tummy can hold half a gal. I prob used to drink that more then once a day. I never stopped being thirsty.. And yes Dr. you never want to try that because it actually hurts to have that much liquid in your belly.(And you never leave the bathroom) I could never eat that much at a time not like most of a pizza. But I sure can drink my share.
