I am in the process of adding pureed to my mushies stages but there have been a few days that I will do liquids in the morning/lunch and have Soup or liquids in the afternoon/evening because I am full.

If I am doing liquids (ie Protein shakes, Soup, broth etc) do I still need to wait and not drink during the "meal"?

what do you do if you eat something that is nasty and you need to get the taste out or if it is too hot?

Silly questions but curiosity is killing me on what others do in this situation.....

I think waiting to drink during the liquid stage is just for the practice. Liquid passes right through the band anyway. You should not drink with your meal once you start on mushies.

There may be times when you need to take a tiny drink to wash something down but I don't guess you will be making a regular habit of eating nasty tasting or too hot food. Taking a tiny drink from time-to-time won't hurt you, but doing it regularly can hinder weight loss.

      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?
