So I realized something now after surgery that I wished I realized waaaayyy before. When it comes to food I just want the flavor. If I would have realized this before I wouldn't have had to eat those 5 slices of pizza or the large McDonald's order. I noticed this about myself (and I know I shouldn't have :( ). But after surgery about 8 days out the family ordered pizza and boy did it look good! With the smell and look of it I felt hungry even tho I just got done what I could drink at the time. I had given in and taken a bite and as it was in my mouth it did taste amazing but I knew I shouldn't have it and spit it out. Afterward I wasn't hungry. Now I know it's not good to do that so that was the only time I done it since but has anyone gone through that or realized they want the taste not the actual food?

It's very normal. I can actually handle anything now & for some odd reason rather have salad Soup & cafe. I guess I ate the unhealthy food for so many years & inside feel like damn! That soda got me fat all outside food at me fat & I just look at food differently. It doesn't mean I haven't had a few McDonald fries but if I have it on a day they didn't change there oil or I'm just sensitive in my tummy out it will go. I rather avoid it all together.

      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.
