I don't go back to work for another 4 weeks but am wondering who out there has ideas on eating breakfast before work or during work. I start work at 5am n I go to lunch at 10:00 a.m. I have a 10 min break in between but I don't want to wait until 10 to eat breakfast. I would normally get hungry at about 7 am.

My work day starts at 6:30 am. I start with a 8 oz glass of skim milk first thing when I get up. I then have 16 oz of coffee (Black)on the 35 minute drive to work. Once I hit my desk I have a Protein Shake, about 10:00 I have a yopliat greek yogurt and eat lunch at noon. I am thinking of adding some cream of wheat or oatmeal in there somewhere, because I need more calories.

I also start work at 5am. I go back on Thursday (2 weeks po) I drink one cup of coffee on my way to work. I get my morning break around 7:45. I plan to eat then. If I get hungry before that time, I'm going to pack a Protein Bar :)

My Breakfast is almost always a greek yogurt, sometimes a protien bar. I'm not overly hungry in the AM.

Hi I start work at 2am, I have a Protein Shake on my way to work. I take a lunch to work every day. My first snack is 15 almonds at 430a. Than lunch around 7 or 8a, sugar free Jello and some Protein, and very little starch. I'm off at 10am, I eat a piece of fruit on my drive home. Than around 130pm I have a Greek yogurt. And finally I have diner at 430 or 5p..... And bed at 7p.... Now don't forget about my 45 minute workout too. So im good and tired at 7pm. Good luck to all on this journey. I get my first fill on the 4th of Feb, so wish me 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?
