My boyfriend is having the sleeve on 12/31. Christmas was really tuff. We had my kids over for dinner and he is on a the pre-op liquid diet. I felt really bad even guilty about cooking a traditional Christmas feast.

Anyone out there feeling the same??

My mom felt the same way. I had surgery Dec 16th, so I was on full liquids when Christmas rolled around. I told her not to worry about and it was the first of many times I would have to control my food lust; mainly because I didn't have a choice anymore! It was rough, and I did have to get out of the house for a while, but my family and the people on here were very supportive ???? best of luck to him!!! I have dropped 20 pounds in 2 weeks and I am still in disbelief, lol!!!

My husband had his band surg. Dec 4th., and Christmas was tuff at our house also. I did make him a sugar free desert with low fat cream cheese and Splenda, topped with juice from sugar free cherry pie filling. But you really do feel awful!

Hi! My wife had gastric bypass on May 14th (her birthday). Pre-op diet was so hard. I felt bad every time I even mentioned being hungry. Now I'm just now getting over my guilt. Mainly because she doesn't have the same feeling toward food as before. She doesn't get hungry like before and I have to remind her to drink Water and eat.

      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?
