Welcome first off and congrats. I am five weeks out. Alright for the first two weeks sf Jello cottage cheese Greek yogurt cream Soups cream of wheat or boat meal Protein shakes as you need to get 60 to 80 grams. Lots of Water crystal light no pop or juices unless sugar free. After two weeks puréed food . I use my an app called myfitnesspal you can track how much Protein you intake daily as well as carbs calories. Protein is very important helps healing weight loss hair loss ect... I hope this helps. Myfitnesspal is for blackberries iPhones and computers . I download it to my iphone and log all my food so I can keep track of good . Hope this helps. You can add me if you like crstalww.

      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.
