I also had a really hard time the 1st week. I lived on crushed ice from Sonic and sugar free popsicles. Water hurt to drink it. I ate ice with a spoon like ice cream.

Gas X chewables helps a lot!!!

Good Luck!

Water, juice, broth...... that is what I had for 2-3 days, now I am on creamy Soups. I have no trouble getting anything down.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions!

I ended up calling my surgeon who said sugar free ice pops were fine...

and the GAS X has helped tremendously :drool:

The pain in my left shoulder is finally gone, and today marks 6 days for me...feeling good!

      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.
