Let me start by saying I have my post op appointment on April 1st so will talk to my doctor about this too, but I trust you all and wanted your opinions also.

I returned to North Carolina in August from a year in Hollywood as a missionary and while out there I fell in love with Community Supported Agriculture/farmers markets etc and decided this is something I want to incorporate into my life here as well. I have been looking for 6 months and finally found a local farm that will deliver just harvested vegetables to my house every other week for a great price. What worries me is that i won't be able to eat a lot of veggies? We focus so much on Protein I was wondering if anyone is able to focus primarily on vegetables?

I was told fruits and veggies are a VERY important part of my diet, or will be, I am still on Clear Liquids, but my nut made it clear that I shall not rely on Vitamins and Protein Shakes alone, so I would be thrilled if I had fresh veggies delivered to my door. Enjoy them! :)

      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?
