"Mouthfuls" is pretty non-descriptive. Can you give it to us in ounces or grams?

When I started regular foods at one month, I could hold 1//4 cup plus two tablespoons, but often did not eat the last bite or two.

At about six months, I could eat 1/2 of dense food or 3/4 cup of fluids.

I just passed two years on 12/23 and can now eat a cup of dense food, or a cup of Fluid, or two cups of a green salad which breaks down to mostly Water.

At one year I had a swallow test and could see my new tummy very clearly in the images. It is mostly over to my right side and looked like a small banana.

      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?
