Tried to do a fancy dinner tonight to change things up alittle 4oz flounder, couple broccoli florets and half of a small potatoe baked in the oven with lemon juice salt and pepper, according to my fitness pal this totaled 156 calories, 8 grams carbs, 6 grams fat and 18 grams Protein.

The only problem was being only 3 weeks post op once I finished the flounder I was done. I guess my eyes are bigger then my stomach, literally.

My eyes are ALWAYS bigger than my stomach. I waste so much food. I INTEND to eat it all - but it NEVER happens.

I was sharing meals with hubby before he went on Atkins Induction in January. Now we eat totally different foods so I tend to waste alot. And this is after 7 mths of practice with the sleeve and almost 4 yrs of practice with the lapband.

In the last 4 yrs, I've never eaten more than 1/3 of a sandwich, but I feel a need to always make at least 1/2, sometimes a whole one. I put my leftovers in the frig and hardly ever eat them, making me feel less guilty 4 weeks later when it's bad to throw it away...

      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?
