Good morning. I have a quck questions for all you lap banders out there. My first appointment with my nutritionist is tomorrow morning and I'm wondering what I should ask her? I have a list of my own going...but just want to make sure I don't forget anything important :wacko:

Excellent! Nutritionists are so incredibly helpful!

I would ask her...

  • recommended daily calories
  • recommended Protein intake
  • recommended carb intake
  • recommended fat intake

Also, don't be afraid to negotiate for your own needs. For instance, I simply can't do super low carb all the time. It's not realistic for me long term at all. I told my NUT this and why, she agreed, and together we came up with a plan wasn't super low carb and worked specifically with my lifestyle.

Best wishes.

I just went yesterday and i brought some empty containers and example of stuff i was eating. The one thing i forgot to ask was should i be taking Fiber. Hopefully this is a nutrionist who works with your doctors office. Please feel free to share what you learn. It is always interesting. Also have meal examples of what you eat.

Good Luck.
