I am getting sleeved in 11 days on Sept 7. I have been struggling with the preop diet not doing it just finding stuff to eat. I have to put a lot of thought into what goes in my mouth now which is a challenge. I am ready to get this over with and start my new life thinner. I am little worried about the diet after I am sleeved any tips on meals the first week or two?

I got a menu plan from my doc. liquids 3 weeks, soft/mushies 2 weeks, etc.

Each dr and nut are different. If they haven't given you a plan, by all means ask for one.

Once you are ready to try things after surgery, check the recipe section, there's some good stuff there for newbs.

      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?
