I was on liquids in hospital. Full liquids when I came home for 8 days. Then, went to soft per my doctor at visit. On soft now.

OK you have learned that our Programs are very, very different. I suggest that you (we) follow our program precisely. The big challenge is our fat brain and now is not the time to be creative... That comes later. Me? I was on puréed as soon as I left the hospital. Go figure.

I was on Clear Liquids for the first 24 hours. Then my doctor's program calls for four weeks of full liquids, four weeks of purees, and four months of soft foods. But the dietician bumped me up to purees and soft foods a week early each time because I was doing very well, no issues or complications. I'm still on soft foods for the next two months.

I want to do the liquids. I'm cool with them for now...however my dramatic mind makes me think I'm gonna reject anything nit on the plan and become violently ill. Lol. But with all of these differences I see a tiny bit of room for error. But I'm sticking to their rules....and being a good little kitty.

Lol...thanks...I'm sticking to their plan. Just wishing they email me the updated literature. I like to schedule things and I'd love to mark my calendar for the exact date soft can begin :)

      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.
