If you were sleeved in Mexico, what did you do about finding a nutritionist or dietitian? Did you get one before or after surgery? One locally? Is there an online website that has nutritionists that specialize in bariatric nutrition? I am 5 months out and have just been doing what my surgeon told me to. I have had great success, but there are a few things I need to talk to a professional about. Thanks.

My surgical team included a nutritionist who I can still call or email any time day or night 20 months post-op.... If you do your research, you can find programs that include nutritionists as well as other post-op resources. I know that BariatricPal requires all of it's partners to provide those things.

Edit! Well I probably should have read your whole post before I started typing my reply! I see you are already post-op. Who was your surgeon. Is it possible that he/she could provide you with additional nutritional resources if you called or emailed?

My surgeon was Dr. Ramos Kelly. If there is a nutritionist, he never informed me of one. I will email him and ask. If not, maybe I will just find a place around where I live. I just really really want someone who knows the situation of bariatric patients!

Let me know what you find out. I's always heard good things about Dr. Kelly, so I'd be surprised if he didn't offer some sort of post-op services.

i had a nutritionist consult pre and post-op and they gave me contact information to call or email if I needed anything.
