I had my first fill last Monday and actually feel some restriction. My questions is, when I eat Breakfast my first bite always gets stuck. It doesn't matter if I am eating string cheese or soft scrambled eggs it gets stuck. It eventually goes down, is this normal?

By evening I don't have an issue eating dinner.....

Thanks for the input:rolleyes2:

My doc told me to expect to be tighter in the mornings and more loose in the afternoon. I haven't had any fills yet so that's the best I can offer you sorry. I do believe it is normal though as I have read about others having the same issue.

It is always normal to be tight in the morning. Many people say a hot drink loosens them up. I have never been able to consume much solid food until later. My Dr. always told me to start the day with a Protein Shake. I always have a skinny latte and often a small muscle milk lite. I could probably do oatmeal if it's not too thick. As the day goes on I can eat better and by evening I can eat most anything and have a very healthy dinner!

Yes, my doctor said to expect to be tight first thing in the morning. He wants his patients to drink a Protein Shake for Breakfast from banding to eternity!

Most mornings I drink a shake. If I wait until around 9a.m., I can eat Cereal or a scrambled egg with cheese. I'm tighter in the a.m..

It is very difficult for me to get solids down in the A.M. I usually am running late and don't have time to fix a meal so I drink those small activia yogurt drinks in the morning. Sometimes it takes me over an hour to get it down.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
