I started trying to stock my cabinets with some possible foods for the different stages. How many carbs, sugars or fats you need to look out for? Does the nutrional label have to say 0 gm of sugar or can it have some? Like I wanted to buy some Tomato Soup for liquid stage but I noticed it had corn Syrup in it I think and then some grams of sugar. So i put it back.

My doc says no more than 6 grams of sugar. Every doc is different though. Didn't mention the carbs.

You can have Tomato Soup

No more than 10 grams of sugar is what I was told

And not a lot of fat

I've been sick lately just camelback from ER

Dehydrated and dumping ate ranch dressing will never touch it again

My surgeon suggested creamy low calorie Soups. They did not say anything about sugars or carbs but was told to watch the fat.

And when we are reading these labels, remember to check the servings and the serving sizes. This will effect how much sugar fat and carbs we are actually getting too.

I think Tomato Soup would be good.

My Dr. said no more then 4 grams of sugar if sugar is the third ingredient listed. And no Tomato Soup or tomatos for awhile because of the acidity. Only low fat or fat free cream Soups for the liquid or pureed stage.

      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?
