Finished with the dietician!



Recommended Posts

I did my 6th and final visit with the dietician Thursday! So they are submitting ASAP and I should have an answer from insurance within 2 weeks. Excited and nervous. I've been very busy and stressed at work and so I'm not looking forward to finding time to take off but my office manager is great at working with me. I'm a dental hygienist so basically we are just recheduling a week's patients, because I'm already booking appointments for December and January so there's no way around it. I can't plan my life 6-7 months in advance! Anyway, just wanted to update everyone. Looking forward to having some surgery buddies when I know my date!

Hate to mention this....but you're probably not even close to done with the dietitian. Your dietitian will likely do your presurgical diet instructions, your post surgical diet instructions... and will probably want to see you regularly after surgery as you start to introduce new foods. I just saw my dietitian for my 6 month check up.

I'm glad to be done for 6 months, though:) Have to see both my doc and dietitian at one year.

Very best wishes on your upcoming surgery!

      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.
