Guest guest Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 I have a big problem. I have received no help after surgery from my doctor. I have no idea what I am supposed to be eating or supplements to take. I hear alot about protein and carbs, but have no idea how much. I pretty much eat whatever I want and hope for the best. Please, Please, Please help me. I have stopped losing weight and need to get back on track. Thanks to all of you who read my ramble!!

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 before anything: how far out are ya? can you find another doc that suits your needs? does your insurance cover nutritionists? any in-person support meetings, a lot of the time they'll be a nutritionist present. lori h. -- In Gastric_Bypass_Family , " toddandvicki03 " wrote: > I have a big problem.
