quick question
hello,
i am currently on the waitlist for wls in calgary. i have been on it since early june 2014. i have an intake meeting coming up on dec 29 and i was wondering if anyone out there can give me a guesstimate of how quickly surgery happens after this appt.
i have not lost weight and am really struggling. when i asked my dietician about the 10% weight loss, she said i just had to complete the 3 week pre-op liquid protein diet. is this true for calgary clinic?
i am so excited and nervous at same time.
i apprecaite any advice or answers.
have a safe holiday season

Have you completed all the classes already? From the time I completed the classes to when I got the call for my meet up with the nurse and psychologist (indicating I was approved for surgery) was about 8 months. After that meeting it was about 3 months until I had my surgery.
Surgery: April 30, 2014: HW: 288 SW: 250 Achieved Goal 149 lbs: April 8, 2015 CW: 158 lbs (working on losing 65 lb regain as of June 1, 2021. Weight was at 215 lbs). Fighting every darn day!
