Dietician appointment
Feb 25, 2011
I had my dietician appointment today! It was really great to finally sit down one on one with someone from the program. Up until now every appointment has been in a group so today we talked about my specific goals and needs. I had to take a quiz about my knowledge of the different surgeries and I got them all right! I lost 5.? pounds since the nut class which was only two weeks ago so the dietician was happy. She said that I don't have to come back to see her again before meeting with the surgeon! I was also happy to learn that I don't have to lose a specific amount of weight between now and surgery...I just can't gain. She said it was great if I can lose more but as long as i either maintain or lose I am fine from here on out and that definitely takes the pressure off even though I want to lose as much as I can preop. It really feels like its really happening now! I have my psych appointment on the 16th of March and then its on to meeting the surgeon...assuming the psych doesn't say I'm nuts! lol I am so happy that things are moving along and at the same time the reality of what I am embarking on is setting in more and more. I know this is what I want but its so huge! Is that normal?
