Dreadful 7Day Evaluation... Any Feedback?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

Currently at my pre-op stage I have seen every specials in the book.... Lol Pcp, Gastro, Phyic, Pulmonary, cardiologist and Urologist all cleared me for WNL. Last appt was with the nutritionists once again the dreadful 7day diet... I feel so ashamed when I see the amount of food I eat and feel out of control... I hate it!!! I feel hungry all the time...My medical issues are serious, I have high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol taking a bunch of meds.. I weight 230 5'4... Can the nutritional evaluación affect the insurance covering the surgery? Can the supervised diet harm my chances of being approved?

Sweetheart...the nut does not think you got to this point by eating salad and a boiled chicken breast. The fact that you have been honest in the evaluation phase is likely refreshing :). The evaluation will show where your problem lies (ie too much carb focus, too large of meals, etc) and help them guide you in the future. It's not a bad thing. You'll be fine! The supervised diet is to prep you for surgery. Some do it a week, a few days, two days, or for a month. For others it is much longer to lose a specific amount of weight to be healthier for surgery. On those, if you don't meet the surgeons goal you likely won't have surgery, but for this it's just an evaluation, not life and death ;)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
