So l am 4 days post op.. And although l dont get hungry, l love the look and the smell of the food that my fiance cooks for herself.. I know that l cant eat the food, but l like to watch her eat.. I find it very satisfying to watch her take bites, and eat this wonderful food.. She thinks there is something wrong with me, and finds the whole thing creepy.. What do you guys think???

I don't find that any creepier than my personal aversion to watching others eat. I'm about over that stage, but it's lasted for nearly 11 months! :)

You're a guy, though. Guys react differently to lots of things than women do. At least I assume you're a guy. :)

I don't think it's creepy at all and I'm a girl. Lol

I know exactly what you mean though coz most of my conversations with my friends are some variation of this;

Me; hows it going...did you cook today? What did you eat?

Friend; ummm I made stir fry today....guess who got fired from their job???

Me; wait so was it chicken or beef?

Friend; it was chicken.....can I finish telling you this news

Me; hold on!....so you just served it over white rice then? Was it good?

Friend; you're so weird.

For some reason I live vicariously through the people around me when it comes to their eating so I totally get you. Im almost 2 weeks post op and food is all I think of. Perhaps this is part of the detoxing period.

      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?
