Craving veggies, but they're srill rough :(



Recommended Posts

The last month or so I have been craving any sort of veggie I can get my hands on but I know too much makes it very uncomfortable. What seems like a good amount to eat and which are easier than others?

I steam broccoli, cabbage, and green Beans. All the others make me sick. Maybe try and steam them really well. They get softer and may stay down better.

Maybe some like cauliflower mashed up?

I'm 10 days post op and am having no trouble with cauliflower, onion, and mushrooms--as long as they are cooked well and pureed well. I think the cooking well thing may have something to do with it.

Try making a veggie Soup or stew. I cook chicken with veggies like a stew, and the really soft veggies are easy to eat.

I am going to try steaming more. We do get the steam veggie bags with no sauce but they are mostly still firm. Otherwise its saute or raw. I can eat almost any veggie but I don't do corn or hominy still. I just dont want to stop eating them because I actually like them now! Lol

      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?
