Johnnycakes, I don't eat those but have attempted to eat them once maybe twice just to get any food down due to the achalasia. We have days we can't get Water down. I was merely using those as examples that me and someone else on this site suffer with on top of the bariatric surgery. low cal yogurt, Water, Protein Shakes, watermelon, are terribly difficult. I was using it as consistency examples. but thanks for the sarcasm.

oh, you must have misunderstood me. there was no sarcasm intended.

Jonnycakes!!!! what the heck is wrong with me? I know it sounds strange that I've dwelled on this, and yes, I should focus on having more a of a life, rather than dwelling on a random comment from a stranger!!! I read another post on this site where a guy got completely reamed for his very honest and sincere post that an entire group of people took out of context. When did we all get so sensitive? Ridiculous!

So I'd like to apologize for my slight snarky response. I hope you are a great day.

Update: Those dam stalls are terrible. Knowing they can hang on for a month or better sucks. But they don't last forever. I've been losing, just slower than I hoped for. I walk 2 to 3 miles daily and it does bother me that the weight is coming off slowly, but looking back it's clear that it's at least going in the right direction.

I finally fell into the one-derland mark at 197 last week. I haven't been under 200 pounds in over 20 years.

So for anyone that is stalling, be patient. The surgery will work and give you the result you hope for. Just don't give up. Don't compare yourself to others out here either. Hang in there.

      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?
