New Doc, new Nut tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

Meeting me new team tomorrow and excited to see what they can offer me to start working this regain back off. Obviously I'm in for some serious work, which I'm willing to do.

BUT I really want to get specific direction from the Nut and the doc both. I generally can do EXACTLY as i'm told IF i'm given a specific path/plan. it's just my personality.

While I'm completely humiliated to meet this man and admit to my gain, i'm also relieved that there is going to be some light in sight.

Wish me luck!

If you like, I'm wishing you luck.

I understand that you're feeling humiliated, but it's uncalled for. The surgeons, NPs, RDs and all the other staff members have seen and heard it all. They won't judge and they'll be happy to work with you toward your success. Your determination is obvious.

You don't need luck. You have your power.

I know if they are like other doctors, no reason to feel humiliation or embarrassment. Doctors have seen it all.

As long as you are continuing to fight this disease called obesity you are a success and not a failure - you just need direction and help with the next steps. you are paying them to look after you.

I hope you will come back and tell us how it goes. I find NUTS to be hit or miss in their helpfulness. wishing you all the best with yours.

Well, i had my appt. i was a bit disappointed. since this surgeon doesn't really know me, or my history at all, he did tell me that i may benefit from an appetite suppressant. i'm not all that interested in diet pills.

Then the nut couldn't see me after all, so i'm supposed to go back. but i've decided to go back to my original surgeon and nut for at least some guidance (and they know my entire case). all i really need is a kick in the pants and a specific plan on WHAT to do. i think i have a pretty good idea, i've been through it once! appt in 10 days.

i think this is a good plan to go back to original medical team

you are obviously a smartie pants!!!! LOL

i saw your earlier post, i don't remember why you had to change doc/NUT?

the new doc didn't thrill you

suggested pills you rather not take

NUT had to postpone your meeting

these are small red flags IMO

not necessary or good for you to feel humiliated

10 days - can you try and do liquids again

for a jump start? - 3, 6, 8, 10 days!!!

a few days anyway would be great ;)

you know what to do

you are a success, even if you gained a few lbs

i just put my sun glasses on

i see that light at the end of the tunnel

it's shining brightly for you!!!

you can do this

i'm giving you a long distance kick in the arse

hugggggs too!!

good luck bud

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
