One Week Out And Having Many Ups And Downs



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on October 15 so one week. I have been doing fairly well with diet and pain. It just still really hard to deal with fast foods and junk with my son. It's like everyone wants to talk about food and I can't handle that right now.

It gets easier. But why not use it as an opportunity to improve your son's diet?

I'm with u!! It sucks my kids just brought home McDonald's.. and sat right in front of me and eat it.. I'm really not a big McDonald's fan but the food smelled sooo good.. I then thanked the kids for eating in front of me and their reply was Oh SORRY MOM WE FORGOT..

This may be a great opportunity to discuss with your son the negativity of fast food and junk food. The last thing you want your son to go through is what you're having to deal with. If I could do it over I would never have allowed my family to touch half the food I brought into the house as they were growing up... Literally!

Aside fom that.. I think this is a huge adjustment time and I wish you best and my prayers too

My son is 6. He doesn't get a lot of that kind of food it's just I'm like hypersensitive to the smell and thought of the food. I know I'll get through its just really hard right now.

      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?
