Nutritionist just approved me!!!! I meet with the surgeon in August. Later than I would have liked, but I am still happy.
I have BCBS through my employer and the bariatric PA says I shouldn't have a problem.
Psych eval? Done.
BMI is 43 and I have one comorbidity (insulin resistance) because I have PCOS.
Nutrition is done.
PCP letter is done.
Had my Mirena put in for birth control (got off the pill).
Oh god oh god oh god. I'm finally going to be healthy!
BTW my nutritionist said my triglycerides (118) were very, very good and she rarely sees them that good in pre-op patients. She says it shows that I am doing well with limiting my carbs. I have been been eating rather low-card for about 3 years now so that made me feel really good.
