Back From The Casinos!!



Recommended Posts

I am back from AC (Atlantic City)! Being 4 days post-op when I went I was a little concerned but it went great! I packed a couple pre-made shakes, a jeloo, and 2 waters to take with me. Got to the hotel and put it all on ice. Wentto the Showboat casino and didn't win anything so we drove to the Tropicana (my fav, casino). I knew hubby was hungry and my throat was so sore I felt like it was closing up and I needed either something very cold or hot. I suggested we go to PF Changs(chinese) inside theTrop. I am VERY proud of myself. I ordered a Virgin strawberry Daiquiri (honestly I needed something icy in my throat. I had about 4 ozs. I ordered Egg Drop Soup to be brought with my hubby's meal. Took out the egg part best I could (it's pretty minced). My throoat and tummy felt so much better! I was thinking like a Bandster-the lettuce/chicken appetizers came to the table next to me and I said to myself "I can order that or make that at home when this post-op is over" They use lettuce leaves and you scoop a mixture mixture inside and eat it like a wrap almost. Left and played Sex and the City machine and won $270!! Whoo Hoo! I feel great today-still a little sore throat. :P

I had the lettuce wraps about 3 weeks post op, yum! Chewed the heck out of um though, but they went down well! Contests on the win!

      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?
