I will be 2 and a half weeks out on Thanksgiving and my NUT told me to make all day Thanksgiving dinner. I have to eat five meals' date=' so I am to make one smashed sweet potatoes, one turkey blended with broth, one mashed potatoes and gravy, etc. She even said I could have one spoonful of the center of the pumpkin pie.[/quote'] Good luck! You'll be doing good to have any of it. At two and a half weeks it was shakes and yogurt for me. My belly didn't want anything like that. Heck, I'm 9 weeks out and I'm doing good to get thru tuna fish. In fact I'm having yogurt for supper..... And with that meal plan, how are you going to get in your 60 gms of Protein?

I am 4 1/2 months post op and will try a little of everything that I want. Maybe just a bite of the stuffing though.....bread still makes me nervous. Sounds like I will eat a ton but in actuality it will be a bite or 2 of this and that. can't wait! :)

I will be 10 weeks out. I have not decided what to cook, I do not like turkey. Maybe a hen.

I did it last year - I was 4 weeks out. Don't worry - it's not that bad! I just enjoyed sitting at the table and being part of things with my family.

. Cranberry sauce.... You mean sugar with cranberries right? And as for black olives....actually contain good fats, but a bit salty.

      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?
