You're not slipping- you're normal. It's a major change! I'm 12 weeks out and just recently started on hard boiled eggs. I could only do scrambled or over easy. I still have difficulties with white chicken. Get yourself cheese sticks, Nuts, seasoned soy nuts, at about 6weeks I wanted sandwiches- so I did my usual only in a lettuce wrap. Chili and Soups became my friend. Lentil Soup, split pea, chicken broth with veggies. My challenge was meeting the Protein in-take, so I purchase herbal life fruit punch Protein Drink (14-15grams), mix with Water and ice, once a day it was filling and triggered weight loss as I was meeting my protein in-take. Best of luck!

chicken and eggs can both be hard to digest early on. chicken is really dense and can be very dry.

Have you tried baked fish? Baked it is very soft and flaky and melts in your mouth.

      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?
