Whatever my doctor told me to eat. I don't know your doctor's policies on when to eat what.

I ate what my doc told me also...which was soft blended foods. I thought they were delicious since I had been doing the full liquids for 2 weeks. I had blended chicken stew, spaghetti, turkey chili...whatever the family had for dinner. I could not eat very much....about 3 or 4 teaspoons but it was enough.

Now I do not have Pasta at all. I use spaghetti squash and zucchini for my pasta's. I watch my carbs and count my calories!

I am three days into my third week. Currently I eat soft foods. I usually have plain greek yogurt and add my own fruits, like strawberries or grapes. I also occasionally have tuna (made with plain greek yogurt). I used to have tuna with a couple of crackers but I decided to cut simple carbs totally out of my diet (as much as possible). I also have low fat sargento cheese sticks.

Tomorrow I plan on making my version of shepard's pie using ground 99% fat free turkey, low fat mexican cheese blend, and mashed cauli. Can't wait.

Hope this helps!

      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?
