I switched to sashimi to avoid the rice carbs.

I can find something pretty much everywhere. A chicken salad eating mainly the grilled chicken, a sandwich eating only the meat part of it (hold the bread), a bowl of Soup, etc. A lot of places will let you order 1/2 portions as well if you ask and they typically have special pricing for that. You can also sometimes order off of the kids' menu, but sadly most of the time the kids menu is more unhealthy than the regular menu.

I don't like Mexican, and I am a snob about my Italian plus none of the stuff I like I can eat.

Sushi though, I got California rolls and spicy California rolls, the rice is on the side so I just ate the center.

From about 6 months post op... anything I want in small quantities! I try to stick to high Protein when I can get quality. One taco is always a fav, a chicken finger or Jr burger with half the bun, typically avoiding fries and such. There just isn't room for potato stuffs. LOVE sushi... 1/2 a roll and maybe some sashimi. When I'm out, which isn't THAT often, I enjoy what I want, I just never over eat. My choices when I'm home tend to be lean meat or soups\stews, sometimes cottage cheese and crackers or a salad loaded with grilled chicken. While I was losing, I food journaled so I'd learn how to get my macros without going over, 2 years later, it's a bit more natural. For me, it's about balance.

      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?
