If you're experiencing discomfort, food coming back up, sliming (an excess of saliva, you'll know it when it happens), or vomiting, you're overdoing it. Keep to small portions (usually 2oz) when you eat and you should be fine. Just (and this is the hard part, at least for me!) listen to what your body says and not how good the food tastes :D

You need to measure/weigh all of your food portions. When you are satisfied to stop eating or you will over fill yourself and become very ill.

      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.
