Recommended Posts

I am 11 wk post op and can eat just about anything at this time but i seem to be having an issue with steamed carrots or broccoli. I cook them till very soft but I still feel almost nauseous. is this normal? I have had other vegetables in Soups with no problem

I can't help but I've got a question, can you eat them raw or have to be cooked?

It might just be changes in taste. I loved tea before surgery, I was a complete tea-oholic but after even the smell put me off. I would have to walk away if someone had tea, it turned my stomach.

i cook them till they are soft and chew them well, I am a little afraid to eat them raw. I enjoy the taste I just get nauseous for a few minutes after I eat them

Try them again in a month or two. Tastes and ability to tolerate foods changes as the stomach heals.

11 weeks is still pretty early in the process.

      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?
