I think you have to do what’s right for you. If staying away from thanksgiving altogether this year is best, then do that. You need to be a little selfish and take care of you : )

Oh I remember now I was about 2 weeks out when I visited my family during thanksgiving (not my intention but that's another story)

I was able to have :

(Vegan) sweet potato pie filling, mashed potatoes & protein/coffeedrinks.

Good luck!

I'm at the tail end of purees - start soft foods on Monday. I don't have any T-day plans (not much family and my friends are all out of town). So I'm having ricotta bake with a layer of spinach puree. For my snack, I made some homemade cocoa - 1 cup milk, 1 TBL cocoa powder, and a packet of stevia. Yum.

Well I was a nicer person today, made and put in a baby ( 1 2/3 pound) meatloaf for Tomkitten . He's holding out hope I will eat one small slice with him. Couldn't find any regular Tomato sauce so dumped on tomato low- calorie Soup, figured basically close enough. A criss-cross of bacon on top, even if I can't eat any it will make the house smell nice. And if no meat, I can scoop some Tomato Soup off the sides and feel like I'm still in the loop. Was going to make scalloped potatoes but that was more my thing to eat than his. He would take a baked potato or some mashed . Don't have much desire for white potatoes, maybe sweet potatoes or winter squash? And as long as there is a green salad, there is joy in his ❤.

      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?
