Hey all! A little background on my situation. I had my RNY on July 25, 2012 at St. Joseph's hospital in Hamilton Ontario by Dr. Anvari (the head of the Ontario Bariatric Program) My highest weight was 324.5 lbs I am currently 229.7lbs I had a few stalls in there but I am working my way through. In Ontario we have follow ups at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months then annually for the first 5 years. I am strongly planning to move to Abbotsford BC for Bible College in the Fall of 2014 (I know I'm a little old to be starting bible college but whatever it is my time). I would like to know any information you can provide about follow ups, the bariatric program and where the nearest centrewould be in BC?

We also have a fairly active peer support system in the lower mainland/ fraser valley. I am in Abbotsford and we have a monthly support group meeting. Please friend me on Facebook.
