I had surgery 16 days ago. Doing well on full liquids but can't wait until I can try some soft food. Why is there such conflict between doctors as to what you can eat? some say bread, rice and Pasta is off limits and others say they can if its whole wheat and brown rice. Any body tried any of these things? Im glad I stumbled on this site.

Glida, welcome! We are all so different but similar. There are a lot of inconsistancies among phyisicans, I figure it is from there personal experience and what has worked with their patients. I do not consider any food off limits, just some foods are easier to eat than others. Some common themes seem to be trouble with chicken, scrabbled eggs, bread products, Pasta and rice.Some of us over time have learned to eat very small portions of these foods if they are cooked a certain way. if you have questions please ask those of us who have been doing this process for a while and have been successful are willing to help if need.

Enjoy the beginning of your new life with lapband.

      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.
