Failing NUT visits?



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow will be my 2nd nutritional visit and weigh in.

I had my upper GI done this morning and had to swallow 3 different types of liquids for the procedure. One was a heavy solid white liquid...literally heavy. Im wondering if this hindered my weight of I havent digested it all yet.

I ate pretty healthy today ..lots pf Protein..veggies and Water. To be exact I ate a 20gm Protein Bar for late Breakfast, 26g Protein chicken breast pattie with spinach, walnut salad for lunch with vinagrette, 2 dried mango slices and yogurt for snack...30g Protein shake for dinner and tons of water.

I just stepped on the scale and I am up 3 lbs in 1 day. .WHAT ON EARTH HAPPENED???

You would think that I pigged out on junk food but I kid you not, i had no junk today.

Needless to say I am quite nervous about my nut appt tomorrow. ..if i step on that scale and weigh only 1 lb less than what i did at the first appt...or worse ..weigh more..that cant be good. Im getting so close to completing everything I need and would hate to go backwards at this point.

It is what it is. No use fretting about tomorrow.

I would say, just sit down with your Nut. and have a detailed discussion with her/him about everything you're doing and eating. If you are making any "miss-steps" she/he will be able to make corrections to your pre-op diet.

Explain everything you went through with your GI testing. With everything out in the open, you two should and will be able to get you back on track.

Nutritionists are there as another tool. Use them and let them help you.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
