Last night 3 hours after dinner (2oz of salmon) I ate a frozen yogurt thinking I can have yogurt why not freeze it. Well I had the worst pain! I didn't have dumping or vomit but if would have helped me I wish I did! :(

Then today for Breakfast I ate a scrambled egg with cheese, and I realized I get so full with less than 2 oz of egg than I do with all 2 oz of salmon. I don't get it! Egg gets me sooo full.

Can anyone relate to either?

I tried egg and it felt like it got stuck and only a few bites filled me up. I think because it's very dense and kind of dry. I have heard that poached eggs go down much easier - and they aren't as dry...

I have to say that I have similar experiences. I can only eat a limited amount of dense Proteins like meat, but eggs often dont fill me up. I can eat a cup of chopped vegetables but again an apple will stuff me after a few well chewed bites. I am about 2 months out and it is always been like this even when eating pureed foods. I have to be careful not to overeat at times. Wierd huh????

      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.
