When did you start eating Protein Bars?



Recommended Posts

I'm just over 1 month. Tolerating everything so far. Just wondering when I should try Protein Bars again. Advice????

I resumed eating them immediately when I was allowed to advance from soft food to eat anything, and they went down just fine. I would be up a creek without my Quest bars!

Six weeks out, started with less than half a Quest bar.

I bought all the Quest bars before surgery and never ate them. I'm doing fine but just now eating cooked veggies and ate half a small apple. The quest are chewy. I like them though. I have the higher Atkins ones but I don't think I could handle how sweet they are. Post op, I don't want anything super sweet.

I really like the pure Protein bars.. I haven't tired any of the other ones. Where do you get the Quest bars at or do you have to order them?

I doubt I could eat a whole one. But I do need a snack before working out (I find I do better). Quest are so chewy though and I'm a little afraid of them this soon out.

      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?
