I have no problem eating ANYTHING! My bad habits are back, and I eat subconciously. I have not gained any weight, but I haven't lost any either. My surgery was 12/27/13

How much Protein are you getting? Water? How fast are you eating and are you waiting 30 minutes before and after you eat?

You San get back on track by going back to rule #1: Protein first. That should fill you up so there won't be room for the junk food. Sadly, even with the sleeve, it's too easy to consume junk food. It does not engage the restriction like dense protein does.

I would talk to a diet counselor and start a support group ASAP. It can be done. Be confident. Posting on here admitting there is an issue is the first and hardest step. Just know that you are stronger than food.< /p>

Thanks for the help so far. I am back on my protien shakes, 3 times a day, and making sure no Water for 1/2 hour before and after. I have also contacted my dietician. I just feel like such a failure, as this is something I want more than anything!

      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?
