It's very common until you get your fills and they eventually hit your "sweet spot".

I was also banded on the 30th. I was allowed mushy foods on Friday. If I keep my Protein Shakes around me, even at work, I am okay. I have also been eating soap...I am shocked though, the shakes do better for me. Today is my first post op appointment, hopefully will be released to more food now, though.

I found the same to be true with my shakes and Soups and after an hour in the Soup aisle looking at lables.. they have very little Protein in them. i was shocked.

      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.
