nut on Friday

[jdillon 355]

My first and only required visit to the nutritionist is on Friday. Any advice, questions I should ask? Anything? Then I have blood work again chest xray and that is it. I got results from sleep apnea test yesterday. No sleep apnea. Yayyyy. Two more visits after next week and I am on my way in July to the losers bench. Crossing fingers. I am going to start prepping things next month. Having the house done food for my son and husband and the things I'll need ready. I've quit smoking drink tons of Water walk more and gave up caffeine. It's all I could manage these 6 months. Trying to give up sweets and breads this month.

You are doing great! Preparing yourself before surgery, giving up the bad choices for good ones, will only make everything easier in the long run for you. Keep it up!

@@jdillon

listen and take notes from the NUT

she should/probably will give you a lot of info that you need to remember

discuss Protein shakes, Water intake

telling you when to change stages

how much to eat

telling you to measure your food

so much more

after she's done talking you "might" realize your pending questions have been answered

you might think of more questions

hopefully she won't mind an email or phone call from you (i did that frequently with my NUT)

always follow YOUR NUT's rules

she is the ONLY one you should listen to (except me of course )

you will get good suggestions from others here

fellow sleevers will tell you their experiences from their NUT

we are all great !!!!!! helpful, supportive

you name it and we're all "full of it"

most times they will pass along the fact the you must listen to your NUT or surgeon too!!!!

what a great lady are you!!!!

getting food and stuff ready for hubby and son!!

its good to help them now

but........

after surgery i'm sure (hoping) that DH will be there for you, other family too would be great

time to concentrate on you!!!!!

you are the important one!!!!!

your emotions might/will be all over the place until July

those feelings happen to many/most/all us

take care

good luck

speedy recovery

Ahhhhhhhh Thanks kathy. My hubby and I were laying there the other night talking about the up coming surgery and he said he hopes I'm not doing this for him because he loves me the way I am and Just wanted to make sure it was a decision I'm making with the right reasons in mind. He's very sweet. I assured him that it was for me and pointed out all the health issues associated with being over weight and we had a long talk. I think he believed I wouldn't actually do this but it's becoming a reality now. It's getting closer to the day of surgery and I'm not sure he is mentally preparing.
