I had my vsg in July. I'm starting to eat better. But I can't shop for groceries(the right way) for the life of me. Anyone have a meal plan or a small grocery list they would like to share. I'm just like a lost puppy when it comes to this. I've lost 40lbs since I started my liver reduction diet. And 25 since my surgery on the 14th of july.. I'm stuck.

When I was where you are. I shopped for high Protein content and less sodium and sugars. Calories were secondary because I could not eat much just like you. I was nervous myself too. Just remember Protein is number one. K :)

Her whole blog is great but here's an extensive list of "pantry essentials" (and they link to recipes she uses them in) that you could make a list from.

      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?
