Recommended Posts

Well i do buy the drozen fruit with no suger added' date='and it makes my shake taste so much better,and i needed the extra calories,because i was not eating enough,which can stall your weight,so it helps with the extra calories my body needs so it works out fine for me..i add the strawberries and berries mix..[/quote']

But the first days after surgery? That was original question

Most responses were no...too many carbs. They did not preficit the answer with yeah.. Its ok for a little bit. They said no. Think about this... When is the cut off? When do you plan to start reduction? What do you really want for your future? If you went through surgery to start a new, healthier life then start it. Find a shake you do like or can at least tolerate and dont try to keep going back to old habits. Yes, there will come a day when you may want to add more carbs and eat more balanced, but that is most likely, closer to goal rather than day 1. Just my opinion...take it or leave it for what its worth. Best wishes.

I add fruit and veggies to my shakes. My Nut said it was fine. Im three weeks out. I add about 1/4cup frozen fruit and same for veggies. I do this probably 2 times a week. My ninja pulvarizes it and it helps me feel less faint when im on the treadmill.

      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?
