I had to see a nutritionist before I could set my surgery date. We talked a lot about what I could and couldn't eat after surgery. The kind of things I wanted to avoid. She let me sample several protein drinks for right after surgery to see which ones I liked. She told me how much protein I should eat on a daily basis after surgery. She gave me samples of vitamins. She gave me a list of things I might want to have on hand for right after surgery and where I could buy them. She was very helpful and I'm glad I had to see her. |
