Hi!

I am going on 1 week of "soft foods" and was wondering if you could let me know what foods you ate during this phase. All ideas are welcome. Some on the list from my doctor are:

ground beef

ground turkey

cheese

cold cuts

eggs

Soup

Thanks!

Mashed potatoes (what a treat that was after the liquid diet!);

Poached salmon;

Soup and all of the things I'd been eating on my liquid diet (cottage cheese, FF/SF Jello pudding, etc.);

Soft cheeses (a bit too fattening. . but at least finally there was something for me to nibble on at cocktail parties!)

That's all I can remember at the moment. I'm a little surprised that your doctor has ground beef on there -- I know that some have a hard time getting it down.

Best wishes,

Catherine

Melliecat,

I don't know if it's just different terms- I'm on pureed diet until week 5 but it sounds like similar food, but you're allowed more solids.

I'm eating:

Soup

eggs

Tuna(chopped fine)

yogurt

cheese(had a string cheese last night - so good)

cottage cheese

ricotta cheese & marinara(yum)

cream of wheat

Hope you're doing well!

      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?
