Hello,

I used the Atkins shakes from Wal Mart. His office should have sent you an email stating what should and shouldn't eat. You might call them and ask them if you didn't get information for your diet. Good luck! I hope all goes well for you!! :smile2:

I am also with True Results and Dr. Benevides did my surgery. I highly recommend him. He and his staff are very nice and informative. I was nervous because I flew from Atlanta to Dallas to have my surgery done but they made me very comfortable and its been smooth sailing ever since!:cool2:

      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.
