It's been 9 months since my gastric bypass surgery. And I was wondering has anyone tried corn after surgery? I've been craving some corn but not sure if it's a good idea from what I read on line.......

At 9 months post op, you should be able to eat corn without any issue. The only thing I would caution you on is to take it slow at first. As with adding any new food, try a little bit at a time until you know how your body will react to it, then go from there.

I am 18 months post op RNY. I use to love sweet corn. I have eaten corn a few times after surgery. The most I can eat is less than one ear of corn. It seems to cause me to gain weight so I generally stay away from corn now.

I'm 7 months out. I've eaten it many times.

Is it the digestion of the corn itself or chemical make up.

Reason I ask is I found some Campbells corn Soup that is pure liquid. I was thinking about adding it to my diet next week.

I have eaten corn, I am 7 months out.

I would say stay away from corn casserole, I had a bad dumping episode, way too much sugar.

This is actually quite a relief. For years, I have had a very large garden and this year alone my wife and I froze up over 90 dozen ears of corn off the cob. Really, all I have heard is that there are many items, including corn, that you can never have again if you have gastric bypass.

      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?
