I am months post op and I want rice like no ones business. But is that a good idea? I havent been watching carbs at all I have been focussing on my Water and Protein. When did you guys start eating rice again or Pasta?

I am not a pasta person and I have no interested in bread only rice.

I would love you input and if you still don't eat it say so! I do not want to go down the rabbit hole.

I've had brown rice a few times and black rice once. I had brown rice maybe 6 mths post op and a few times since but never much more than 2 tbsps. Other than the glutenous white rice in sushi white rice never held much lure for me. I'm also vigilant enough about avoiding empty carbs that I have shied away from processed carbs like white rice.

My surgeon says no rice, Pasta, bread, crackers for at least 6 months post op, as they form a Gummy ball in your sleeve and he doesn't want to have to go in surgically and retrieve it.

I used to love rice. White rice, brown rice, black rice, Jasmine rice, you name it, I'd inhale it.

Rice makes me hurl now. I can eat a bite or three (small) but within 20 minutes it will come back up. It's almost as if it grows in my stomach and MUST.COME.BACK.NOW. And it does.

I don't even want rice any more. Pahsta (sic) does the same.

How long ago did you have the surgery lady?? It says you been a member since 2013 so I'm assuming 2 years and still can't stomach rice??

I mostly stayed away from white carbs until I passed goal. I'm not a big rice or Pasta eater so it was no big deal. But I do LOVE sushi and starting around 9-10 months out I have had it at least a couple times/month. Same goes with Thai food...it's really the only time I eat noodles.

      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?
