The nausea is horrendous and the fog! I think I walked into my bedroom three different times before I remembered why I kept going in there. TGIF!

Pre-op diet was harder for me than the surgery and recovery. Take it a day at a time, folks.

After surgery, there's still a couple of weeks before you're back on real food....but it's better somehow...cause you can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Wish I could say something inspiring and perky here....but I remember it as just plain miserable.

On the plus side....surgery was a lot easier than I expected.

Wishing you all luck.

Stay strong and keel your mind focus in other activities.. go out for a walk.. movies..Remember, once it becomes a habit it will be easier... we all struggled but you need to think is part of the commitment for the “new you”. Read something, distract your brain.. and picture yourself slimmer, stick that in your head before you even think in food.. Believe me is worth it! Good luck Ash!

      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?
