Black Diamond - Really? I was sleeved the same day and I'm on soft/mushies. So boiled, scrambled, and egg salad, tuna salad, oatmeal, anything I can put thru the blender and make mushy.

What's getting to me though is coffee. ugh 2 times now, within an hour I'm in the bathroom. I saw a mug at 5 Below the other day that I'm thinking of getting now. It said "Coffee Makes Me Poop".

My nurse practitioner said we absolutely CAN get dumping. I get it. Mine is associated with too much fat. For the first several months whenever I ate dinner outside of my house I immediately had to lay down...chills, rapid heartbeat, bathroom visits frequently. It's subsided a little now, but I'm a lot more careful of what/how much I eat while away from home. Some docs say this does not happen outside of the bypass, but there's no other name for this.

Yes, I do - and I'm over a year out.

There is some new research into this. Where they THOUGHT it wouldn't cause it, they are now finding it does cause dumping in most cases.

I am fine with non-refined sweeteners like honey, coconut sugar, etc. But refined white sugar and corn Syrup are what really get me.

Nothing fatty or fried for me. Only took one lesson to teach me the hard way. I never did throw up but I walked around holding it back for 2 hours. Ugh it was awful. Can have a bite or two of sweets but not a lot. No bread or I am in pain. No seafood anymore as it tastes downright awful to me now. Lettuce ....... I may as well eat it while sitting on the toilet.

But, if you look at what I listed, it's nothing to be overly upset about. It's things I shouldn't be eating (minus the seafood) anyways.

Oh this is Well Said!!!

I mean, we might 'mentally miss' some foods, but we can live without them, right?

      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?
