Sure do! I have yet to get in all of my Protein or water! The first week I thought I would never want to eat again. But this second week has proven otherwise lol. I have visions of all my fav foods dancing in my head :(

I'm on my 6th day of my 2-week liquid post op diet....and I want pizza!!! Watching TV with all the bad food commercials is, quite frankly self sabotage. I think once I get back to work, next week, it may be a bit better. But I hear you....sometimes I "think" I feel hungry too. And I want to chew!!!

Yes the commercials are killer! I go back to work Monday so hopefully it gets better.

Are you taking an antacid or PPI? I had hunger feeling constantly in the first weeks. It was acid. Prilosec took care of it.

      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?
