You know with the sleeve how you're supposed to wait 30 mins after meals and no eating with. Sometimes it takes me so long to eat so little and I want a drink so bad I just decide the food isn't worth it so I can start timing for a drink [emoji28] [emoji28] [emoji16]

I do the same thing! I'd rather drink than eat! I don't think I've ever said that in my life!!😂

Wish I only had to wait 30 minutes. My surgeon requires his patients to wait an hour after eating.

And although I don't , know his reasoning he probably has very good reasons based on the years he or she has been in practice. Mine will not allow his patients to eat pickles, not now, not never.

I do the same thing! Since it’s impossible to rush through the eating, I usually give up and set my timer for 30 minutes so I at least can start drinking again

Oh and I forgot to add... pretty sure this is why I’m struggling so hard to meet Protein goals.
Most days it’s a success if I hit 40gm protein bc I don’t have the “patience” to take what seems like forever to eat

      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?
