Lettuce (May have already been answered)

I get stuck easy on salad but will try it and risk it when I am craving them but I usually eat the top and none of the green but a bite or 2.

I will try when I am out or in a rush to get the dollar side salad from McDonalds or Wendys and chop a piec of chicken over it(like the dollar mcchicken) but usually eat the chicken and throw most of the salad away(good thing it only costs a dollar)

This is a great question. I have been wondering the same thing. But what bothers me the most is bread. Any kind of bread food. Absolutely HORRIBLE. meat too can be a problem but not as bad as the bread crap. Steamed veggies go down really nice. All you can do is try alittle bit and see what happens.

I too have salad just about every other night for din din... I just make an effort to chew chew chew the salad... I eat Arugula salad - but if youre not a fan, and your worried about it being stuck, try shredded lettuce (subway salads are made w. shredded lettuce fyi). Its a smaller cut and may work for you.

My Dr. told me to stay away from salad only bc theres not much nutritional value in it - but throw some chicken/shrimp/fish on it and it works fine for me =)

Good Luck.

      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?
