Frustrated

So I had my appointment with the nutritionist today, at Portsmouth Naval. Very disappointing. She wouldn't clear me. Told me I hadn't made enough lifestyle changes and to come back in a month (mind you, I spent 6 months with a dietician last year, under my doc's care). The appointment itself was very tense. I had the feeling she wasn't a fan of bariatric surgery at all. I realize you have to be realistic on the difficulty of things, but I thought the environment would be supportive. As of now they are scheduling surgery for August, now this will set things back at least until September at the minimum. Not sure how this benefits me at all. Totally frustrated.
