How are you all doing? What are you eating in a day? I'm drinking some Protein, eating some nonfat yogurt, some Soup and that's about it. Oh and Water. Water. Are you sleeping, I'm struggling.

I am doing fairly well, no longer taking pain meds and able to tolerate my diet without N&V. Went to the market yesterday and walked around for 40 minutes. I have 16 staples which get removed Thursday this week but must say getting around pretty good.

How is your recovery progressing?

I'm doing well. I see my Dr on Wednesday. I, too, went to the market yesterday. First time I was out. No more pain meds and no problems tolerating anything. I'm anxious to see the Dr to affirm I'm progressing. I've no staples, I'm glued, boy am I itchy.

I have heard many others say they are itchy as well. That's usually a sign of healing so that maybe a good sign that your body is healing. Wishing you much success on this journey, happy you are doing well.

Hi! I was sleeved 2/10 in Boston. I'm having some struggles that I wondered if y'all were having or experienced at any point? I'm trying to drink Water a lot. I'm dehydrated & feeling the gross affects of that, so that doesn't make it any easier. Though I'm seeing the scale tick down everyday, I'm still having mental issues with missing food. I occasionally experience cravings for foods that I probably should never eat again (mostly carbs). I'm a carbaholic. Anyone in this boat?

Hi skinny mini. I was sleeved on 2/23. I'm doing well still on all Clear Liquids as per my doctor. I am also having the worst cravings. My family is eating and cooking and the smell in the house is driving me crazy. I am encouraged because my total weight loss from highest wt to know is -30 pounds.

      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?
