Did I Jump Right Past Green Zone

Well, it's possible, but here's some questions:

-Are you taking tiny bites? Like the size your finger nail?

-Are you chewing until the food is complete mush?

-Are you pausing between bites?

When I had my last fill, I struggled to eat big time. In fact, I almost got a slight unfill. But then I realized even though I thought the bites I was taking were small enough- they weren't. I started doing exactly what I listed above and was able to eat normally again.

Eating slider foods isn't good and neither is a band that's too tight. When did you have your last fill?

When was your fill are you supposed to still be on liquids or mushies? If you're fill was more than 2 days ago and you are supposed to be on solids and you cannot eat solids by 12 o'clock noon you are too tight. Some people at restrictions can not eat solids until noon.

      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.
