Finally! Starting to feel Normal again!



Recommended Posts

Finally, feeling normal again. I can't eat much but I'm eating a lot of different things now.. I'm 2 weeks post op. And my energy is pretty much back.. Almost. I tried pimento cheese on wheat thins, went down good. And then watermelon I have tried, it went down good as well. I'm feeling good!!! 18pounds down since my surgery day 6/15. I'm still at the same weight last couple of days 220 weigh.

Hoping next couple of days I lose more. I do feel restriction in my tummy, which is great .. It tells me when I'm full. I'm still eating very small amounts. But I'm trying different things.. Compared to the liquid diet and purée food stage.

Congrats! I know how good it feels to move on to "real" food. I ate a lot of pimento cheese early post-op. I ate it with a spoon though. Watch out for those carbs! They can be tricky!

      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?
