I am 3.5 weeks out and can eat soft foods like canned or dark chicken, fish, apples, mushrooms, deli meat. I don't remember seeing anything about hamburger meat? I read where steak is much later- but what about a ground hamburger patty?

Well I'll go based on my own experience. I could eat it but it had to be the lean ground meat. The fatter kind mad me sick and felt like my stomach was swimming in oil even though I drained it well. I did the lean and just chewed and chewed my nut said as long as I could tolerate it well and it was soft it was fine.

So log as it is moist. You know the drill about small bites and ridiculous chewing.

I no longer need to chew a lot in order to comfortably eat solids, but it's still kind of a mindful eating thing. Chewing a lot forces you to eat more slowly.

At 13 months out I can relax about it a little, but if I gobble-gorp something, Miss Tummy will punish me for about four hours.

      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?
