I am 8 weeks and I had a little tiny bit of lettuce today. It was rough on me, other people have no problem. Best recommendation is do what your doctor says to do.

I eat lettuce but very minimal. I have been one of those lucky ones who can handle any food but sausage. I can handle the lettuce fine except that it constipates me if I eat it often.

Just make sure that you do a very good job of chewing up the lettuce. If the pieces are too big it can give you problems.

I had a salad from Chipotle at 6 wks but I had them leave off the rice, sour cream & cheese. It tasted heavenly & I had no problems. It was enough for 3 meals.

      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.
