4wks out and starving



Recommended Posts

Check out the recipes section. You'll start to get ideas of how to make variations on your favorite foods. I just made a variation on mexican food tonight (recipe posted). You may want to add Beans, pureed beef, etc, to your diet for more variety. One of the ways I'll get variety is through the seasonings.

What stage are you on? There's a lot of good things to try. The Mexican recipe mentioned above looked really good. You could do ricotta bake, ground beef with cheese melted, baked white fish, refried Beans, buffalo chicken dip, egg salad, ham salad, deviled eggs (could add avocado), cottage cheese with hot pepper relish (just check sugar content). Experiment and enjoy!

Watch ground beef so early. Many have issues with it.

Soft proteins........ I would stick to the diet plan your surgeon gave you. When I was allowed soft chicken about six weeks out, it lodged in my chest. I still rarely eat chicken because of that experience that terrified me. Go slow, don't try to eat anything that isn't soft or puréed unless your surgeon tells you to. Good 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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
