I had a sugar free popsicle last night and really enjoyed. Since my sx date 7/9 on day 4 (today) I can have thin creamed Soups ( no chunks), vegetable juice, thin diet pudding, Protein Drink.< /p>

Oh yeah Popsicles are my new best friend. I was also sleeved on July 9th. I was actually figuring this as day three. Creamed Soup sounds yummy, my Dr has us on clears for week.

How is everyone doing? I went back to work yesterday and was a little uncomfortable and tired but made it thru my 9 hour workday. I was hurting some last night tho. I hope today goes a little better.

I'm doing good. I worked from home on Monday, today I was out and working all day. Then I went to the gym and did the elliptical for 30 minutes. That kicked my butt. I am exhausted. I'm still on all clears so I'm getting about 250 calories a day. The elliptical burned 350 so not much fuel in the tank. I'm not in pain but still very aware that something happened inside me and I feel like I should be getting a PhD in Burpology. Everyday gets a little better, I can actually swallow a normal amount of liquid so that means the swelling is going down.

Wow, you must have super human strength. I thought I was doing good just being able to walk and work and get all my fluids in. There is no way I could be exercising that much especially on clears. I am on full liquids and have been enjoying Greek yogurt.

Hi - I was sleeved on the 9th also - good for you being able to work 9 hours - you must be doing all the right things - how are you doing with your Protein? I'm so proud of you.

At first I wasn't able to get much Protein in but I am now up to 60-70 grams a day. The Protein Shakes I liked pre-op makes me gag now so I get my protein from Greek yogurt and I get a gladiator smoothie from Smoothie King at lunch which has 40 grams of protein.

      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?
