My nutritionist told me to go to full liquids when I get home because otherwise people are to weak.

Yeah, four weeks out and still weak - some days better and some days worse. But if you've lost 25kg in 3 weeks - that's an awful lot and probably one of the reasons for your weakness. But the longer I am after surgery, the better I feel overall, so don't worry - there is hope!

The sugar from the Powerade and Gatorade made me so nauseous. :( 22 days of Clear Liquids today - I can start mushies tomorrow and I'm terrified I'll be sick!

Clear liquids lasted 23 days total and I started soft foods yesterday. My emotions have been all over the place and I cry at the drop of a hat now. This has been more mental than I could have ever prepared myself for.

So glad you posted this! I'm almost 3.5 weeks post and i tire so easily...even in the shower. I started mushies at 3 weeks but having trouble keeping this down. I did start taking 2 children's Vitamins yesterday. Hopefully that will help with this fatigue.

      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?
