Wow, you're going to go straight to he!$

Lighten, up, you blew it, but it sounds like you have little to no restriction. Go to phase 2: mashed potatoes with very small peices of roast beef (or chicken) and gravy, scrambled eggs with cheese and small peices of sauted sausage all scrambled together.

I got really depressed after being on liquids for 3 weeks (2 before and 1 after) I got over it when I started eating stull like the above -- just watch your portions and ask your doctor how soon you can have a fill (1 week is too soon I think, mine said I needed to heal for at least 6 weeks before he would do a fill)

You still need to talk to your doctor. You may not have slipped NOW, but from what I understand the movements your stomach makes when digesting food can make the healing process less effective, resulting in a weak bind. Because of this weakness, you are much more likely to slip later. I may have not gotten the band yet, but I've been reading constantly for the past 6 months and this seems to be the more realistic part of the problem. You may also want to seek counseling to help you deal with your emotions now that you can't use food. Hope it all works out for you.

      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?
