Dr. C's support group tomorrow

Dr. C definitely did say that our stomachs empty faster, and that he doesn't care if we more often as long as we are eating good foods, especially dense proteins. 

I asked him why he didn't change his documentation to say that more than 3 meals are OK and he said he didn't want to encourage people to graze.

He also has said he's gone back in to do surgery on people who have hernias and sleeves from him so he was able to see how much they stretched, etc. 

He said that the stretching is at its maximum at 18 months out approx.  He said the sleeve does stretch some but gets to a certain point and then stops.  However if you started with a bigger sleeve then is will stretch out even more (to the power of four).  

He also said he starts his sleeves up higher and really makes th8ings tight to help avoid regain.
