bread is totally my weakness! I am actually glad that the Lap Band is goin to help me with that. I learned the same painful lesson regarding my husband's very best grilled pork tenderloin which I dearly love. Off the list for sure- got stuck, thought I was going to die- luckily it passed on.

I can do bread but later in the day and it has to be toasted a little. Flour Tortillas not so much. They get too sticky but corn go down find. I love my bread too.

I had a few foods on my pre surgery food bucket list and a soft pretzel and grilled cheese were on it. I know I won't see either of those for a long time if ever, but worth it right?

bread not an option...a few months back I tried some gluten free bread at Great Harvest Bread Company and I actually for it down in very small bites. But ultimately bread, white Pasta, white rice and tough meets are not an option:)

did you actually vomit from it?? ive had so many near misses lately with vomiting. im just realizing now that it was just about to happen each time but i narrowly missed going through it. How bad was the experience? im having some issues right now. i may need to get some fill removed. Ive found that roast pork, at least until i had this fill, was a meat i could eat and tolerate well. Im baking roast pork now for the family. it will be interesting to see how i go with a mouthful tonight.

It was pretty bad lol!! It wasn't traumatic but it hurt like hell.!! Before this last fill ( my second ) I had no problems with mostly anything. Now my bites have to be very small and well.... No more bread...!! :(

Let me know how it went tonight....!!!

I gave up white bread but until this last fill I could do tortillas. After this last fill I had the most horrible episode with a flour tortilla after a major amount of serious discomfort I realized it was coming back up. It was the first time I got sick and it was textbook sliming. I will never eat them again! I can do rye corn tortillas and orowheat sandwich thins but small bites chew well. It's all about the restriction. I also discovered chopped steak was a no no the hard way. Only been sick three times but I learned from it! That's why they call the band the general :)

No, I did not vomit, although I thought I might. I got an intense pain in the center of my chest and I started salivating like I would vomit and my nose started running. Leaning over seems to help some, then I drank a few sips of Water and it went down. But I had gas pains the rest of the day. Never again. I am 6 days post-op and I do not have any fills. I thought the tenderloin would have been ok. It is juicy and you can cut it with a fork. Oh well. Did your roast pork go 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?
