I agree.....go see someone else. I was actually worried when I approached my GP about doing this (I'm scheduled for surgery on Jan. 20) thinking she would say it was too drastic for me. But we talked a lot about it and agreed that even though my BMI is only 35 (which is considered Obese) I actually DO have health related issues, Type 2, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. My next appointment was with the surgeon that she recommended. Have you seen a surgeon yet? He was the one who sent me to the dietician and we were all onboard at that point.
