Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Is there something I can have besides this...?



Recommended Posts

I never thought I would want to stray from the diet but here it goes. Question. Can I have Peanut Butter and crackers if I just chew them up really well? I'm two days away from being one week post-op and I'm sick of just eating broth, Jello and popsicles. So sick of it, I'm repulsed by it. It's only been 5 days. Smh.

Stay strong. Maybe try mixing in some PB2 into a Protein Shake to give you that rich Peanut Butter flavor. I'm 1week post op [emoji4] Hang in there. I had a small decafe soy latte to change things up a bit.





Thanks for the encouragement. Thanks for even replying. [emoji846]

Our liquid post-op diet is for 3 weeks and I've still got one to go, funnily enough Toast with PB is what I want but even tho I am fine with really chunky Soups etc I'm not gonna risk toast. Definitely add PB to shakes as it will help.

Have you tried finding a good Soup you like and straining it? Sprouts has a really good soup I love. Now I just strain it and give the filling to family or trash it. Just an idea.

Try peanut butter balls just let them melt in your mouth 6 of them is five grams of Protein. Just don't exceed that much per day.

      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?
