I had surgery June 3. I had lost 9 lbs by the 6th day after surgery. But to any since. Any ideas? I want to lose pounds! I'm having a hard time getting liquid Protein Drinks in. Someone please give me ideas for Protein. I'm on soft foods now.

tuna, chicken salad cut very small or mashed up. Meatloaf, chili. Unjury chicken Soup is a good source of Protein. Do you not like the Protein Shakes or having trouble swallowing them?

Give your body time to adjust, I lost a chunk the first and second week and nothing for another two weeks. It will happen.

You are about three weeks out, depending on what your doctor suggests, I was on puree type food then. So, refried Beans were a nice go to for me. Cottage cheese has a ton of Protein. Or try getting protein power unflavored. It all has somewhat of a flavor, but I put some in everything. Soups, coffee , Cream of Wheat.

Was sleeved on 6-4 and did not lose anything the first week. But I lost inches. Don't sweat it. Keep to your program and all will melt away!

      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?
