Is there anyone else that only has one kidney? I just started the program and am in the pre conditioning week, however before they will start my plan (Meta something, I forget) they have to get my doctor's approval to use the protein shakes. I am a bit nervous he won't allow it and they will have to start me on a different program that is less losses each week. Anyone else run into this??
Hello,
As a dietitian, I think its important to listen to your doctor. Protein is very important factor depending what stage if kindey fuction you are in. You still have one kindey so that is wonderful! How is your GFR?
GoalBound, I did a diet program very similar to this food plan without the protein shakes years ago and lost weight. With the amount you need to loose, either way, it won't take you long if you stick to the food plan. Hang in there.
Anyone else with only one kidney?
