Not sure of your dietary restrictions, but here's some stuff I enjoyed at three weeks:

low fat lunchmeat

Turkey Chili

Anderson Split Pea Soup

No sugar added applesauce

Moist chicken mixed with a little BBQ Sauce

Turkey meatloaf (found it in the deli case at Walmart)

Crabmeat

Shrimp

I took the canned chicken breast (chopped it up fine like tuna) and came up with creative chicken salad ideas. For instance, my current incarnation, I've added to the whole can 2 Tb if lo-cal mayo, Thai seasoning to taste, and 1 Tb of PB2 powdered Peanutbutter. I was hoping to take some of the boredom because I've got one more week of eating like this. I also bought the small boxed veggies (asparagus, carrots, etc.) and puréed them. I season them to my preferences. So far I've lost 20 lbs. and surgery was 5/20. Hope this helps.

      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?
