I have been craving carbs, I wasn't sure why, since before my surgery, I wanted sweets. I decided to figure out why, and wouldn't you know it, I have my cycle. Has anyone else's craving changed since surgery?

Don't get me wrong I loved carbs before too, but I never craved them, I wanted chocolate and that was the only time I did.

I am just glad I am figuring out this new body of mine, so I can stay on track with my eating and not give into what I want as much, as I use to.

Hi,

I start to crave carbs, after I've actually had carbs... best to try to stay away if you can.

In saying that, I have diabetes so sometimes my body does actually 'need' carbs.. If I'm predominantly Protein, then I go low blood sugar I find.

Glad you worked out what was causing your craving though. :)

You are so close to breaking through the 200s and entering Onederland. Stay away from the carbs at all cost. Just don't even start. Trust Me. They've kept my weight stuck for a few months now. I started anew today, trying to be strictly Protein with a few veggies and vinegar.

Avoid carbs, if you can. Wonderful Onederland awaits your membership!

      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?
