Toronto Western or Toronto Hospital - Non-surgery Weight Loss Program
I did a search for the above, a few different ways, but nothing really came up. SO i'm asking here. I thought that I remembered TWH having a weight loss program that doesn't involve surgery. I cannot find that information. Anyone out there know about such a program at any of the Toronto-area hospitals?
Surgery March 23/2011. Completed three full marathons and two half marathons, two half Ironman distances. Completed my first Full Ironman distance (4 km swim, 180 km bike, 42.2 km (full marathon) run) in Muskoka August 30/2015. Next Ironman Lake Placid July 23/2017!
if it's anything like Humber, it's something they offer but don't publicize. basically it is the Optifast program, but for a longer period (I think humber was 6 months), and then they start weaning you onto regular food, just like after the RNY.
The dietician at Humber offered it to me.
