Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | I believe that they are considered nuts and nuts are a wonderful source of natural unsaturated fat.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Of course what i say is whatever your nurtionist and surgeon tell you is what you need to follow...I was never told to not have nuts...as a matter of fact i have them often..My favorite is the shaved almonds....love them and have never had a problem with them. I also like chunky peanutbutter on my apples and bananas..its another way i squeeze in my protein.... It probably all depends on how far along you are when you should introduce them into your diet. Every surgeon and nutrionist has their own plan and thats the person you should ask to be sure what is right for you...

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    | well i think sunflower seeds are great. I would imagine early post op to be very careful of shells getting in your pouch. ESPEICALLY sharp edges could tear your healing staple line. I would ask your surgeon unless you will be eating the kind all ready out of the shell. NUTS were a good snack for me early out.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Nuts.... I was told nuts are good but just in moderation because they are high in fat. I love them for a snack occasionally, especially in a trailmix.
