Well since I am in for the long haul and looooooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggg wait until my consult, I started a four week course today at our community health centre. The course deals with reasons we eat and emotional eating. We were told that there wouldn't be any talk of diets but just the emotions around eating and how we can go about changing the emotional aspects around eating. First session was tonite and I was very pleased.

Sounds interesting.  You will have to share some of what you learn with the rest of us!!!  Wish I could do something like that.  My referral was only sent in Mar/10 so I am also in for a loooonnngggggg wait for my consult.  Trying to make some small but positive changes that will make my WLS more successful.

This is the last session and will be offered again in the fall. Here is a link to the creators of the program:

It is facilitated by a dietician and social worker/nurse. If you want the dates of the next session you can contact St. Joseph's community Centre at 632-5537. They will also be offering a weight mgt course in the fall that is pretty succesful.

I live in Alberta and I'm a part of the Weight Wise program and here we do what they call modules. They are about healthy eating, exerceise, the surgery and craving change. They are all so awesome and you are offered so much information.

I hope you enjoy your course.
