I thought I would put in an update for anyone who might be interested or who was following this thread. I lost a total of 4.2lbs after my 5 day liquid reset. I found that I had good restriction yesterday after eating. Last night I had some slow cooker mongolian beef and broccoli and I still had good restriction. I really haven't had strong cravings for anything but last night I did have to talk myself out of having a Peanut Butter Power Crunch bar (I love those things) and instead had a cup of Decaf choc peanut butter coffee. I think it more had to do with habits - watching TV and it was early evening - a time I would typically "like a little something snacky". I've decided that I need to restrict myself to weighing only 1x a week on my designated Monday mornings. I have also realized that I need to ensure that I am getting at least 64oz of Water in a day. The 5 days of liquids wasn't a walk in the park, but it wasn't that difficult either. I would do it again in the future if I needed to.

@@proudgrammy your 5 days are over! Hope you got the results you wanted.

congrats bud!!!

your slow cook beef meal sounded great - you forgot to invite me!! LOL

that's great that your restriction is flourishing!!!

i agree - eating/snacking is one of those "old habits die hard"

something i always have to think about not doing

weighing weekly instead of daily

you are not staring at the pot every day waiting for Water to boil

you are not staring at the scale everyday to see the # move!!

      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?
