Hah-! So glad. When you tire if taco, try ranch dip powder. I did a variety of international flavors, like masala and turmeric for Indian, etc. I know you have to go easy on the spices and not everyone can tolerate, but I had no problems and the savory options kept me sane.

The taco seasoning idea is genius! Wish I'd have known that when my family was eating tacos last night, lol! I was sleeved 3/31 and have been struggling to get more than 1 shake in. Yesterday at Walmart my 10-year-old son spotted some "vials" from New Whey that are 42 g of Protein in just 3.8 oz. Let me tell you, it tastes like ass, but it's so worth it to only have to get 3.8 oz down! I'm taking a few swallows several times a day. I figure I can do this until I get to the point where I can have a protein bar!

Lmao Lisa. Taco is definitely better than ass.

Unjury makes chicken broth flavored Protein Powder. It's reasonably tasty. Just make sure you don't heat it over 140 degrees F.

Thanks but no thanks. That doesn't sound appealing to me at all.

My pain is stomach pain. It changes all the time. I think sometimes it's just terrible hunger pain, then I manage to eat a teaspoon of purée food and then that hurts. I'm so thirsty, but if I drink more that 2 tiny sips, it hurts. Then I get indigestion. I have pain in my back/ lungs and cant get a good breath. I'm just miserable.

Did they advise to try antacids? That presents as stomach and shoulder pain, might help to get you through to your Doctors Appt...

Been there and now I'm tired of mashing up all my foods in the pureed stage. Ready to eat real solid foods!

      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?
