feels good doesn't it?!?

I rarely have a shake now - but occasionally there will be days when we just can't quite get there - or when I don't have time to fix an egg for Breakfast - you know? the shake is good to keep on hand for those times. but I didn't like having to *rely* on them.

I'm eating about 3-4 oz of chicken/fish/beef for most meals, I've been able to tolerate pretty much anything so I get to work in a lot of variety. Breakfast is either cottage cheese or 2 scrambled eggs with some cheese. Right now I'm not eating anything that isn't a high Protein food. meat, cheese, and eggs.< /p>

I'm using http://www.myfitnesspal.com and it has a great nutrition calculator for recipes. So I can track Protein per serving for anything I cook.

      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?
