Do you have a NUT you can consult with? I understand how it doesn't feel right -- because it is a vastly new way of eating -- soooo different from how we all ate BEFORE surgery. Your stomach is healing so sticking with liquid is the norm. Most people do find it a challenge to meet their Protein and liquid goals right away. And, everyone's doctor seems to have a different plan as far as food progression goes. I had to do Clear Liquids the first 3 days if I remember right, then "full" liquids (protein shakes) for like the next 10 days. So it was a while before I could have cottage cheese. Oh you better beleive I was day dreaming about cottage cheese by day 6 of the full liquids!

ANYways, you should be following your surgeon and NUT's plan to a T at this point. So if it doesn't feel right, definitely check in with them! Good luck!

      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?
