Hi everyeone! I'm new here. I just signed up yestreday. I've found a lot of the posts very helpful.

My gastric bypass surgery is in two weeks and I've started my phase II liquid diet in prep for the surgery. The foods that I'm supposed to eat aren't bad, but when you work in an office where someone is constantly bringing in Burger King, McDonald's and pizza it can be tough! I know that I have to stay true and follow the diet, but I'm going a bit mad here! :)

If anything I'll have a better willpower after going through this, right?

Thanks for letting me vent a little bit.

I understand your problem, simply because food is not like smoking or social drinking . You have to eat, you don't have to smoke or drink. Let's be honest Burger King and McDonald's smells lot better than a cup of Soup or should I say broth. But stay focus on the big picture. I don't start my liquid until the 26th. surgery Oct 8th. During that time I may need you to remind me of these words I shared with you. Good Luck

      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.
