Recommended Posts

Just curious if 3 days of liquids followed by another 3 days of Soup, yogurt and liquids are the norm.

Thanks!

Well I wouldn't say the norm. My surgeon only recommends 24 hours of liquid then advance to normal foods as tolerated. liquid doesn't mean Clear Liquids either. Soups, Water, etc.

Every surgeon is different some err on the side of caution when it comes to fills. Others are more liberal.

Yes, every doctor is different. Today I went in for my first fill and my doctor told me that I should stay on full liquids today and tomorrow morning, mushies tomorrow afternoon and evening and then proceed to solid foods the following day.

I will get my first fill...THE DAY BEFORE THANKSGIVING! I'm thinking that may be cruel and unusual punishment! I've asked my family to postpone thanksgiving 1 day so maybe I can at least eat a few things and not have to drink it. My doctor recommends 24hrs full liquids and then progress as tolerated. I know my band is very loose and I don't expect much restriction with the first fill. I'm curious to know if anyone tried some solid foods 48hrs after fill.

      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?
