Hi! Hang in there. I too have 9 days to go before surgery and this diet is really testing me. I had to go to a friends graduation party yesterday and it was catered by my favorite BBQ restaurant in town. It was soooo tough standing there with my bottle of Water watching everyone eat and smelling the food. But I did not give in. Just remember it's all about the head hunger. We can do this!!

You are alone.... You will make it through this time. Think of ways to distract yourself, get out and move, be as creative with the liquids as possible. There is a wonderful pay off at the end. Keep us posted on how surgery goes. You have come a long way to get this far, try not to let your tastebuds get in the way! Good Luck. Heather:thumbup:

      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?
