Thanks...I was so scared this weekend because i was so hungry after starting my pre-op diet on the 9th of jan. I went to a concert in Dallas with my girls and EVERYTHING smelled so good! I wanted so bad to eat food! I didn't and I was so proud of my-self. I am now able till the surgery to eat a small salad in place of a slim fast. I am on three slim fast and one Protein Shake and two multi-vitamins everyday. I can eat all the fat/free Jello i want and drink all non-caloric drinks...I am going to be ok though....

Thanks again...

      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?
