I gained like 3 lbs and I go to my last nutritionist appointment this week I'm so disappointed in myself.

Same thing happened to me

What did your nutritionist say?

That she wouldn't send my information to my surgeon yet till I lost some weight and that I'd need to continue seeing her till I can lose some weight

How long do you have to wait now?

My surgeon doesn't operate unless you lose 10% of your excess weight first to prove you can stick to a plan. Others don't care. Luck of the draw.

I go to see her on 2 weeks

Yes, I gained weight during the 6 months of nutrition classes. My insurance company doesn't require a certain amount of weight loss. My surgeon recommends losing 5-10 pounds before surgery. I imagine most of that will also come off during the pre-op diet.

Nope

I didn't gain, but around the 4th month (6 month wait per insurance with 2lbs a month lost.)

I just doubled down on the nutrition and the gym and lost about 47 all together.

You take whatever happens with the nutritionist and keep moving forward. There will be plenty of ups and downs.

I did but its ok they just wanna see that u can lose weight on ur own

I did also, if you wanna make sure you make the previous op weight, find a spa with an infrared sauna and make the appointment right before you weigh in, I dropped 5 lbs in 45 min and finally got to my weight

Yup! The same thing my nutritionist said, It took me 2 added months to get to my weight to be submitted for approval

I have gained throughout the last 5 months..... I have been slowly dropping things I've been walking a lot and it just seems like I try and I gain I'm so upset.... I'm scared my insurance will deny me... they didn't say I need to lose anything before surgery? I need to buckle down ALOT more this last month [emoji51] super stressed
