Just keep the faith I know I finding now fighting hunger thoughts of having pizza or whatever since ever freaking tv commercial is food! But hats off to all who have taken the leap!

Pretty darned sick of watered down Gatorade (surgeon instructions) and premier shakes, but I’ll take it.

Powerade Zero is what my docs recommend and you can have as much as you want by itself..

Watered down gatorade sounds bad, but I don't like gatorade in the first place. I found that hot herb tea went down really well for me. My first week I wasn't hungry so the food commercials and food network didn't bother me, but now, after 2 months, I am really craving a big slice of pizza!

I just heard about a Pizza Crust made from cauliflower. Have you heard of that or tried?

Hi just checking in as well. I got sleeved on 03/19 as well. I am 14 lbs down. My diet consists of diluted gatorade, unsalted beef broth, cranberry juice and crystal lite in Water. I have head hunger, hard to explain. I feel a lot better then I did last week, just some minor abdominal pain. I drove for the first time today also.

      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?
