It's all a part of the gastric system. I would definitely get permission first.

I've read about a sleever okayed by surgeon to have a colonic 3 days out... The Water doesn't go anywhere near sleeve and should only result in mild swelling of lower belly- ask your surgeons I suppose but they've been good to be for short term Constipation and usually result in a move on the scales...

I just finished reading a thread here about defining a stall and what to do to break one if you're really in one (not losing weight or inches). Here's a link: http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/24808-is-it-really-a-stall/#entry209964

They do help me out, and because it's in a positive environment I feel a lot better, like taking some me time... They say the first one loosens and the second extracts (sorry tmi) but some people only want your money so will tell you to come more frequently... Your choice I suppose

      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?
