two more weeks until I see SW & dietician!

two more weeks!!! I'll see SW for second time and dietician for first time! hoping to get the ok from both. I've been doing ok at eating what I'm suppose to, I havnt gained any weight I was 253 and now I'm 246. so almost lost 10 pounds. but some days my weight goes right up to 250. I'm just happy it's not going any higher. lol I have to record my 6 days of eating she said to do it 1-2 weeks before I see her so probably start it next Monday/Sunday. I'm going to make sure I write everything out in great detail. ahhhh before it was about 8-9 weeks before my appointment and now it's almost here it really does go by so fast. 

The fact that your trying to eating better and your seeing some loss is a good thing!

I'd really be interested in how your appointments go, as I know your going through Windsor as well.

I just had my NP appointment this week. Have my nutrition class/sw appointment in August. So I'm a ways behind you, but any insight to what goes on, especially meeting the dietican for the first time.

If you could let me know how things go in a couple weeks, I'd really appreciate it. You can personally message me or just post how things went...if you don't mind that is.

Good luck at your appointments! Hope you get approved.

How exciting! I have to wait u til Aug for my follow up SW and Nut appointments. Everybody I've met in Windsor so far has been nice enough, but I didn't really like my SW - didn't feel like I connected with her and it's hard to open up about personal issues when that is the case. She was professional, just not very friendly.

Please post an update after your appointments as I'd love to hear how it went.

Are you leaning towards Guelph or Toronto for surgery? I'm still lost on that decision...

The nurse I met was really nice, and the receptionist too.

So your'll be meeting with the dietican for the first time in August? I'd love to hear how that goes. I'm honestly a bit worried when I get to that. I still have to get the Nutrition Class in August. I know you have to journal for a week before you see the dietician, I just hope I can make the changes needed. Its tough giving up junk food, let along bread/pasta which I LOVE!! lol

I'd be glad to update after my appointment. I'd love to hear from you as well, since you are also a head of me.

As for the hospital I'm leaning towards...I don't drive, so my Mom is the likely candidate to drive me, and I know she prefers guelph, instead of driving to Toronto, so I have to take that into consideration. I know my GP said if you can get the surgery done in Toronto do that. Although, I think she's a bit biased she trained in Toronto.

I'm probably leaning towards Guelph, but I haven't made my decison. When I saw the NP she said they are sending patients to two different toronto hospitals now, not TWH anymore. Might depend if there's any backlog at a certain hospital too when I reach the surgical class in my journey. That's still a long ways off though. As I was told the only difference really is Guelph is more strict with your post op diet after sugery.
