Thank-you to all who has shared their advice. I will keep trying. I had less than 1/2 an egg (soft) this morning and I felt as though it was stuck...but I waited the 30mins of discomfort before I took a drink. Hopefully I can get use to it and break the habit. Thanks again!

I still can't eat hard boiled eggs without it feeling like it is stuck in my throat. Drinking makes it worse.

Another suggestion: Life Savers makes sugar-free candies. If I am really thirsty after eating (like something spicy), I will suck on one of those. It helps me feel less thirsty until my 30 min is up.

I actually am at the same stage and I am able to eat soft fruit. So what I do is eat my Protein and take a few bites of watermelon in between and I find it helps with dry mouth some what

Sounds good; I will try the watermelon trick when I get to that point.

      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?
