Recommended Posts

food has become a pain in my ass sitting with the family is great I just don't want to eat at normal times . My poor wife's every woken thought is what I'm eating and drinking and how much ....just started the 3 sip thingy with Water so I know I'm getting enough water in over the day I haven't been over the last few days happy with the results so far just want to settle down to some sort of normality . dinner is ether I'm eating to fast or starting with wrong food first some stuff I can eat one day and not the other Tomato Soup seams to be the best going to try the Protein Shakes to get a handle on how much I'm getting in any tips tricks or menus would be appreciated. Rant over feel better I've got that off my chest . Happy sippin and nibbling slevers: )

I am only 5 1/2 weeks out but i find that dinner is my biggest problem. I think because I am eating too fast. I am trying to slow down but its not that easy because after two bites i remember and I am full! But I find that I do best with shrimp, crawfish, fish, and crab meat. I have tried chicken, can chicken, ground turkey, ground beef etc. It sits in my stomach like a brick and I usually throw up. If you like seafood try it. Others have said the samething it seems to go down nicely.

Found a great way to get the food in set out your food as you do then cut up everything small then eat one bit at a time it's working for me : )

I use Unjury chocolate splendor protien powder. (ordered on line) I put a little hot Water in my blender and disolve a heaping teaspoon of decalf instant coffe (or more to taste). Then add 1 - 1 1/2 cups water or milk, about a tablespoon of Jello chocolate instant pudding mix. and 1-2 packets of sweetener (I prefer Truvia). Blend briefly. Drink and Enjoy. You can play around with the components trying butterscotch, or vanilla pudding, vanilla protien powder, fruit etc. This works for me. Hope it helps you. Also if you have trouble getting you fluids in, try warm drinks. I found I love herb teas, like cranberry apple, caffiene free vanilla chai.

Sharon, I love chocolate splendor! I bought a whole container of their other chocolate formula and a sample pack of chocolate splendor and so glad that I did. My next full container will be of that flavor. It tastes so decadent.

      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?
