Minor Set Bacl

[hopefulstar 2]

so im kinda bummed! i thought i was done with all my preop stuff. the team at my bariatric center discussed me and everything went well except that the nutritionist wants to meet with me again, so she did not clear me for the go ahead to see my surgeon. this sets me back 2 weeks which is OK but i am surprised she was so unimpressed with me. maybe i was too honest with my food log and my habits.

i tried to explain to her that I hadn't started doing a lot of the healthier eating/smaller portions things i should be doing, becuz I know i will lose some weight with my pre-op diet that will put me very close to not qualifying if i lose too much (current BMI is 43). seems average is 10-15 lbs pre-op diet which would already be too much. I did lose 2 lbs between my initial appt and this one tho so that should have counted for something!!

anyone else suddenly required to do a follow up visit with nutritionist? im nervous she wont clear me now. i didnt vibe with her like i did with everyone else i met.
