At 8 weeks I was transitioning from purees to soft solid foods, with the following rules:

--3 meals per day of no more than 3 ounces each, no snacking

--each meal should consist of at least 2 ounces of high Protein food (meat, eggs, dairy, Beans, soy, etc.)

--if you eat 2 ounces of high protein food and then want to eat an ounce of fruit or non-starchy veggies, you may

--everything should be something you can cut easily with a fork

--no potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, peas, grain-based food, or sweets

--no raw vegetables

Things I eat fairly regularly: turkey burgers, all kinds of fish and shellfish, poached eggs, dried fruit, avocados, mini babybel lite cheeses, all-natural yogurt, nonfat cottage cheese, chicken, Peanut Butter (I like the "Naturally More" brand with flax seed), cashew butter, refried beans. And I'm a big fan of adding hot sauce to my food, it doesn't bother my stomach a bit.

I'm 7 1/2 weeks now and I eat pretty much everything (including potatoes). I haven't yet tried bread, rice, or Pasta yet tho. I was sposed to wait for 8 weeks before I started raw veggies and fruits, but I ordered a salad last week. It was yummy. no problems.

I was on a 4 week liquid diet and 4 weeks of soft foods. I can now eat everything in small amts, but they don't recommend bread, rice, Pasta for 6 mths.

      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.
