Hi all, I am 16 days post-op. Doing okay, struggling with liquids and the mushy food, I am only going potty 1 or 2 times a day. And this bubble in my throat, any ideas to help that. I think that is my only complaint, I guess that isn't that bad at this point. But what mushy foods are you all eating that is good? But I am 6lbs from losing 100lbs, and that was mostly pre-op weight lose. Till more to go, glad to see all the pics everyone post. Really gives me some faith that I made the right decision. post-302804-14813344404588_thumb.jpg I am looking better. Wish all well wishes. But any help with that bubble in the throat would be greatful and mushy foods that are good.

Are you on any meds for stomach acid? Some surgeons give them to everyone after surgery, I had to ask for them at 4 or 5 weeks out. I still have some gurgling but it has gotten better.

Good for you. Your journey will be the best you've ever made for yourself.. I too have the bubbly feeling but mainly after drinking. May be too large of sips and taking in air as we sip. Im going to try to do better with the air intake myself and see what happens. Good Luck and co gratulations!!!

      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.
