What ones are we aloud to have for fruits and veggies. I know I can't have celary and citrus I don't know if I can have.maybe I can I think I have to take the membranes off. So what fruits and veggies are okay to eat? I really love pineapple, oranges, apples, pears, grapes, and strawberries. Oh I also don't think I can have bananas I don't know. I hope I can have salads again hmm so yeah

Who said you can't have bananas? Your doctor? I have eaten them since the very beginning.

Did you decide to keep your band? I think I read once you were wanting it removed. I hope it all works out for you. I know since you are younger it might make life a little harder for you. I hope you decide to keep it. I think you will be happy you did later on. But what I read sound like you have had touch times. Hope they get better for you!!

Ever. The dr said the sugar from the fruit will cause you to eat more and weight loss will not be as significant.

Bananas and melons have the highest sugar content. My doctor said to eat them sparingly. As far as other fruits, I can eat them, but I have to take the skins off (apples, plums, etc) and be wary of stringy fruits like pineapple and oranges.

      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.
