first nutritional visit today.

It wasn't as painful as I imagined. I've been struggling with weight issues since I was four. She didn't tell my anything new. She recommend I start eating like I would after surgery. And taking Vitamins. Yay food log! Already have been for years with WW. I'm ready for this journey!

I can remember my first nutrition appt and in the blink of an eye I completed my last 'required' one yesterday. I plan on continuing to see mine, however, because I adore her! She's uplifting and supportive and I feel like if I keep seeing her I might have a fighting chance at this to be successful.

Glad your first appt went well! Best of luck with your journey!

Thank you! I have state insurance that requires 6 visits but I heard that they accept 4. I'm hoping I could do they, but I'm OK if I have to do 6. How has your journey been?

I been seeing my NUT since 2/26/13 every 2 weeks ... I was 296 when I started and I'm down to 263 as of yesterday when I saw my surgeon and he's okay with my surgery now ... He wanted my BMI down since I'm only 5" and I wouldn't have done with out her ... after my surgery I'm going to continue to see her ... I need the accountability if not I slack and start gaining it all back

I had my first meeting today, too.......she didn't change my diet one iotta........we just talked about pre and post op diets......will be interesting to see what the next 2 sessions are.

Good for you. It was just a broken record for me. I've seen nutritionists many times. But whatever it takes I'm ready for! I hope this goes fast.

Does your insurance require 6 visits?

[PGee 318]

Mine requires 3 visits, and they don't have to be a month apart....with how we've timed them, I'll be done July 1st with NUT visits.
