Anyone able to eat cheese



Recommended Posts

I used to love cheese. Its a good source of Protein that is especially important to us banders. On my list from the nutritionist is skim mozzarella string cheese. To me it would seem too chewy and not easy to breakdown to the mushy stage needed so it doesn't get stuck so I am a little afraid to try it.

Any advice? :hungry:

Cabot cheese makes a 75% fat free cheese made with 1% milk. It's really good. :nervous

My absolute favourite lunch is a few crackers, a few pieces of a good brie, some chilli jam, and a sliced apple. Yummmmm.

cheese and crackers as a combo for me is a "careful" food, it can block up quickly. But cheese on its own, I avoid or I'd eat a whole wheel of it! Its easy for me to eat.

      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?
