Nutritionist Appt

[ambalam 54]

What exactly happens at the appointment with the nutritionist? I am almost done with hoop jumping for my insurance, and am getting so nervous about every appointment. I am going in to the nutritionist soon and have myself super worked up about it. Any information will help!!

I had my first visit with my surgeon's nutritionist last week. I've been to NUTs before, but they've always just given me a bunch of BS that I already know -- like "eat smaller portions" and "try not to eat too much sugar." (DUH)

But my surgeon's nutritionist was GREAT! We went through my typical day of eating, and then she gave me a diet plan tailored to help me lose the 36 lbs. I have to lose before I can get a surgery date. Non-judgmental, kind, helpful -- I can't say enough great things about her.

I can't guarantee your visit will be as good as mine, but do try to go in with an open mind. I went in with a closed mind and it got changed!

Thank you for the information! My mind is on overdrive and I was worrying that I would have to strip down for the appointment or get completely grilled, lol!! I feel tons better knowing its just going to be a conversation
