My first nutrition consult

So today was my first nutriton consult and it was great I meet with this wonderful lady that seems to really want to help me. The only thing is that I don't think she is so for the surgery, she didn't striaght up say anything but you could feel it. She did give me alot of information. I start a diet today with lot's of protein and I have to have breakfast which i have never had time to do. The only thing is she told me it would take 6 visite for me to get any paper work to my doctor from her, Which means that my surgery might not happend in Dec which is not good. I only have the time off in dec.:) But just keep ur fingers crossed for me that we get her to change her mind and get some paper in sooner. HOw long did it take you guy's to get papers in from your nutritonist.

I am really confused. I feel like I was rushed into this process. I never even spoke to a nutritionist. I went to a consultation about the process I think that was about 15 minutes, then I was scheduled for surgery 3 weeks later! I have been frustrated because I never seen to find someone to answer my questions, but I am glad I went through the procedure.
