Recommended Posts

I cannot believe it. Had my pre-op appt today. I can have 2 shakes a day 8 oz of Soup and 1 Greek yogurt or cottage cheese or Popsicle for snack. I do this for 3 weeks til surgery. Seems a bit restrictive....? What pre-surgery diet are you on?

I second that! I'm on the same shake shake and more shake diet... Consider yourself lucky' date=' Pam, you have variety :) I'm going on day 5 of a two week diet. It's hard, but I think it's getting easier. I'm just trying to keep as busy as I can so I'm not daydreaming and nightdreaming about food... which I've done since I can remember lol[/quote']

I'm on day 3 and it absolutely IS getting easier....but still not easy!!! My issue is 8:30, my son goes to bed....the kitchen calls me :/

My problem is cooking dinner for everyone. I think they will have to fend for themselves for awhile, as I have decided to go on a walk at that time!

Lol, my eyeballs are floating in crystal light!!! My co-workers (brats) have started making bets on how many bathroom breaks I'll take during a day. I have a 16 oz cup I'm refilling almost hourly, it's insane!!!

And my kiddo is 8, I still have to help with supper. I have discovered if I chug a shake right before I make his dinner that I'm queasy and food is repulsive for a bit! I know, weird, but whatever works!!!!

      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?
