Dietitian Counseling



Recommended Posts

I just had my dietitian appointment, and it was quite well, she gave me my grocery list from Vitamins to Protein supplements to purchase. but before I go spending money I just want to wait on the final approval. I have BCBS and WLS is cover by 90% I just have to do my psch evaluation which is next week. Maybe its just nerves thinking in the back of my head that I will be denied just don't want to get my hopes up

CONGRATS! your almost there. I would do some research on the internet for prices for Vitamins because I buy them over the internet as long as they're in a different state than mine. That way I don't pay for taxes and sometimes I get a really good price. also I make sure that shipping is free..... :)

Being lactose intolerant, I bought the Calcium supplements right away. I haven't bought anything else yet. I will when I get my "date".

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the feed back, so far I have search the internet for some good prices (Injury) have some great reviews, so once im finally approved I will either buy from my surgeon or purchase the injury off the internet.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
