Topic: Meet and Greets for April and May

Good afternoon everyone,  BOOK YOUR CALENDARS

I will try to remember to post this one more time closer to the dates.

I have secured Louis Riel Library for two dates: 17 Apr 14 from 6 PM on and 22 May from 6 PM both are Thurs nights.

Louis Riel Library is in St Vital just south of the Mall on Dakota

Louis Riel Library

1168 Dakota Street

I hope that some or most of you can make it. It is one direct bus from downtown Winnipeg and it is on the outskirts for all of our out of towners.

Hope to see you there Lorna

The Bariatric Clinic has a scale as they weigh you each and every time you visit them.

The Victoria is a hospital I would think that somewhere in the hospital they could find a scale. I would think that the bariatric office should have one.  I got my forms in also good luck, now the waiting begins, I am trying to loose some weight before my next appt. So I may meet their criteria,

Topic: RE: Facebook group

If it is a private group, does that mean it is private on my profile also? Will my Facebook friends be able to see that I belong to the group? My WLS journey is very personal to me and I don't think I want others knowing just yet that I am pursuing WLS. I've heard that the FB group is a bit more active though (?) so I'd like to check it out. 

 

Thanks

Hi Northern,

I have been calling  every month for the past year...no one answers the the phone and you can't leaves messages. The recording at the clinic says. And I do quote from memory" if you are calling with regards to the status of your application talk to your family doctor"....we'll I did talk to her and she has no idea as to what is going on at the Victoria and further to that she called the clinic and they didn't return her call either...I would love to get in on a cancellation...but when you speak a person or even a machine all I can really say is this really sucks for me.

 I have no clue as to how long the wait is and hope someone will answer your question. I would let them know about the upcoming wedding though. I just attended the informational seminar last week. I'm pretty much new at this. All the best to you and the upcoming wedding.

Topic: In Regards to future Meet & Greet Question.

When the next Meet & Greet is scheduled, can someone send a PM to me as a reminder to book Handi-Transit. It would be helpful to have a few days noticed and/or up to 11:am the day before. Furthermore, wheelchair accessible.

Have my questionnaire completed, but forgot to get my current weight. Does CBWS have a weigh scale at their office. I don't have a scale at home, nor do I want one ;-)

Have a wonderful day

Linda

The longer wait for me was due to the fact I didn't meet their criteria. I had to work on getting my weight down. When I did, I got the letter to attend the informational seminar. I just have to send in my questionnaire next week that I received at the infor session and they will send me an appointment date to see the Team.

I can't believe you have been waiting a couple of years. I believe you were at the same meeting as myself. Hope our wait won't be that long. If I hear correctly it sounds like 6 months. Get your paperwork in soon.
