So, yesterday on my first day of the live reduction diet, I have a handful of home cooked peanuts and a spoon full of an omelette. Did I mess up?

you asked, did you mess up? Unless eggs and peanuts are on your pre-op diet, then yes, you messed up. Is it likely to derail your surgery? I really doubt it. The liver reduction diet is meant to be low carb, low sugar, and high Protein, and your choices fall in those ranges. If I were you I would focus on being more compliant going forward -- if nothing else this is good practice for being compliant post-op -- but not beat yourself up about a few peanuts and bites of eggs. They aren't going to harm your prospects for surgery or hurt you (repeated self-sabotaging might so I am not suggesting you keep doing it!). Overall it sounds like you are doing well and a minor slip like this is something to keep an eye on, to make sure it doesn't keep happening, but it isn't something to get down on yourself about. Good luck!

@@Latoya1214 I am not sure -- we didn't have a diet just like yours at the practice I used. I would call up your surgeon's office and check to be sure.

      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.
