I do not get my first fill until august 6th. I'm only eating 1/2 cup of food right now. I get so hungry right after I eat and so I don't know what to do until my next meal. How can I reduce the hunger pangs???

I know what you mean, today is exactly three weeks post op for me and today I have been hungry all day and it's not head hunger its gut wrenching tummy hunger but I have been a very good girl and not given in. Just been drinking extra Water and tea and tomorrow I go in for my first fill thank goodness. Can't wait to get that feeling of not being hungry again. I can't do the Protein shakes anymore they make me feel sick, so it's determination and a strong will ATM, I feel I've come too far to break all my good work and honestly I just don't want to eat like I used too, this new way feels so much better hungry or not for me personally.

Big hugs for you and hang in there, it's tough but so going to be worth it!

I mix the shots with water--one shot with three tubes of Water and pour over ice. not the greatest, but it helps.

Watch out on the sugar free candies. Some people get diarrhea from them-ick!! Foul smelling gas, too.

I add Davinci sugar free syrups to my shakes, and it helps. Also, buying Atkins shakes or EAS advantage helps.

      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?
