Recommended Posts

Im not hungry but want to eat something

:(. Like Soup with thin noodles (liptons chicken soup) would this hurt me? Ive been doing great on all liquids, no nausea or vomiting what so ever.. Hot or cold liquids dnt make any difference to my new tummy.

Why would you sabotage your WLS?? You are only 8 days out and it is so important to follow the guidelines that you were given. Follow your surgeon's program-if you don't that is where problems and complications begin. One of the main complications that can occur from trying no foods to fast is a stricture. I have not had one but they aren't fun and when you have one you need to go back in for an outpatient procedure. Im not saying that six months to a year from now you won't cheat on foods we shouldn't eat but being so early out just don't do it.

I never said i wanted to cheat. Im simply bored of full liquids. I think im ready to advance to pureed/soft foods. Phase 3 is just a few days away for me.

I realize how it feels to be ready to advance your diet I would just really follow your program guidelines. I have read horror stories about people eating foods they shouldn't to early. Even though soft food is probably not going to hurt you- what is a few more days. Ultimately it is your decision... :)

I felt the same way. I was sick of liquids then I moved on to purée. Then I'm sick of purée And today I start soft foods. Ill be 5 weeks out on Tues. It is so hard to stick to the plan but it will be worth it in the end. Hang in there!

      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?
