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?
