My visit to the nutritions office.
First off, I am soooooooooooooo happy that my surgeon does not require the two week pre-op diet.The surgeon does require you to lose some weight and not gain any you can lose on your own, however the sugges you substitute one meal with a protein shake. My surgeon and nutritiinist work together and are in the same office. They are a little strict in I will have to be seen by the NUT once a month for a year. They closely monitor your food intake and require of you to exercise at least 60 minutes per day, every day. She states they are very strict to hold you accountable. I can deal with that. They will also come and visit you in the hospital. after surgery and they also have a renovated surgery wing, nice huh. She even gave me free protein samples from unjury. I feel like I am in good hands. I just have two more Dr visits (one tomorrow) to finish up my requirements then I can submit my paperwork to the insurance company. Please keep me in your prayers.
