Not that I am at 5-6 weeks yet but looking at my menu next week I can have a piece of toast which I had my surgery 10/7/2015 and in 3 more weeks I can have a garden burger! Sounds good but from what you are all saying seems to soon but that what the docs menu is.

I am 4 1/2 months out and I still haven't tried bread. My NUT told me today that I could try toasted wheat bread or wheat English muffin but to make sure it is well toasted otherwise it WILL get stuck. Not sure I would try it as early out as your dr allows but if you do, just be VERY careful. Tiny tiny bites and eat VERY slowly (like wait 1 1/2 to 2 minutes in between each bite).

I'm jealous of all you people. I have a full liquid diet for 4 weeks, then pureed for 4 weeks then soft food for 4 weeks.

I'm going to die.

I was told only very crisp toast as well but have not tried it...no desire to eat bread. I did however have a veggie quinoa burger with a slice of cheese last week. I could only eat about 3/4 of it but it was heavenly!!

      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?
