after surgery how awful it looks when others take big bites?

I am 11 weeks out and I am really getting used to my small amounts on my plate, and small bites. I am really becoming repulsed by how much food others put in their mouths. I was the "eat a meal in 3 bites" and finished in3 minutes person, why is this wiggling me out? Anyone else notice this?

Yes. I was watching my hubbie eat yesterday and I was just astounded at how much food was on his plate and how much he put in his mouth at once. I take very tiny bites and chew, chew, chew! I had surgery 4 weeks ago.

Hehehe,I started putting less and less food on my kids plates,until they reminded me thry have normal stomachs and I dont! I really worried that they would gain weight if they ate that much.

But in 10 months since I've been sleeved my 20 year old hasnt gained anything and my 11 year old gained 3 pounds,quite normal dont you think?

Now,I remind myself to back off.I am not normal anymore and they are!

      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?
