So today was my last nut appt, and when i got her to document my 6 month supervised diet document, she suddenly got upset saying, i dont need surgery, i wont be able to enjoy eating for the holidays its not a good choice. i was saying in my mind...I have done my research i dont need u to tell me s***. Did anyone else experience like a negative vibe from their Nutritionist?

Well I worked with a nutritionist several years ago when surgery wasnt even on my radar and it worked but when I wasnt being followed regularly by the NUT, I gained the weight back. When I decided to have surgery, this NUT was not supportive because I had proven that I could lose the weight. Needless to say, I have a different NUT now and she is very supportive and really understands the sleeve and what I need to do.

Hope that things go well for you. It was a great decision for me!

The last appt of a 6 month requirement should be a happy occasion! I know mine was. My NUT was extremely supportive of my decision. For some reason, I was the most nervous about that appt and it turned out to be the best, most informative session possible. And as I was leaving, she told me that she knew I would be successful. I was on cloud nine for the rest of the day after that. I'm sorry that you didn't get to feel that way after your visit. Don't dwell on it. Use her words as fuel to get you to your goal. Good luck!

My nutritionist sucked. He basically kept trying to sell me medifast shakes and told me that surgery wasn't the way to lose weight. I just yesed him to death so he'd write my approval letter.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
