I'm encouraged to eat Beans and legumes for Protein but these also have carve...complex carve but carve. I see a lot of people eating zero carve. Does this mean you eat no beans?

I think that its the Protein they are focused on not the carbs. I think 1/4 a cup of cooked lentil is about 15 carbs or about that and it has about 12 to 15 grams of protein. I am trying to figure out what to get that will be best in protein once i have my surgery.

I eat Beans at least one a week but I have to admit that whenever I eat and drink, I feel like I'm walking on eggshells! But I will miss eating beans with rice...lol. I hope that you're doing good eating the beans now.

      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.
