Easter at the in-laws who own a butcher shop. Hence, lots of Protein options!! I had maybe 2oz of smoked prork ribs, 4 deviled egg halves (two at dinner and 2 about 2 hours later) about a teaspoon of baked Beans and a teaspoon of mac & cheese. I weakened at the Easter egg hunt. I had about 5 pieces of chocolate. I've never lost my sweet tooth as many posters have said. I sure wish I had. That's probably why I have been in a stall. Too much junk!!! As I said on another thread, I am vowing to no sugar or anything white at least for the rest of the week.

Try going 3 weeks without sweets. This should be enough time to wean off them. Protein will also help eliminate the desire for sweets. Some posters have also said artificial sweeteners trigger a desire for sweets, but I have not found this to be the case. However, I have found small amounts of sugar (2 g) that is in my Protein Bar sometimes makes me want to have more. Waiting 20 min after eating my Protein Bar will usually find my desire for more to be gone. Wish you continual success.

I am almost a year and a half out. I waited a good month before eating solid food. I am maintaining and staying on track but it is very hard and challenging. Evolving..... it was a good month before I began eating solid foods and even at that it was mushies and soft stuff.

      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?
