How do you guys get your Water in?? I can't drink 1/2 an hour before meals and I have to wait 1/2 an hour after meals. It takes me so long to eat that sometimes I finish eating Breakfast and it's already lunch time. Also if I drink a shake can I drink water right after...Tips please.

30 min meal breaks only, if you cant finish it in 30 mins your suppose to put it away for a few hours. That what my Nut says

yes you can drink Water after or during trying to get a shake down. and my nut as well says to only give myself 30 min a meal and then stop if i cant finish it. then every 2 hours go back to it if you want. the main goal is Protein and staying hydrated for the first few weeks though. it gets much easier! best of luck

      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.
