besquared1426 49 Posted May 22, 2012 Went to my second Nut appt back on the tenth. Two other people attended who were also planning on WLS. The nut handed out some Protein Shake samples and talked about the preop and initial liquid diets right after surgery. One of the guys didn't have a clue about how his food intake would change after WLS. He thought the Protein Shakes -- the very idea of needing them--was ridiculous. He kept criticizing the nut info. It was clear to me he didn't know what he was getting in to. I was amazed at his naïveté and ignorance. It made me realize how lucky I am to have found this site. Thank you everyone for helping me to know what I am getting in to! 1 Lissa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lissa 2,631 Posted May 22, 2012 Square, At least you started researching what you wanted and have some knowledge. That guy is going to be one of the ones who is whining in six months that his weight loss stopped and he has no idea why. You, otoh, are going to reach your goal. He will be jealous of you!!!
