Last scheduled appt tomorrow.
I am nervous about my one on one with the NUT tomorrow. I have gained weight since the last time I was weight by the the bariatric team.
I am hoping this doesn't set me back. I have made many positive changes and started working out 3 times a week but just my luck I gained. And not just a pound but 10!
Hopefully I will get the go ahead and they will include my my file in rounds on Thursday. And then just have to relax and wait for the meet the surgeon appt call.
It is frustrating I am so ready for this surgery, but I know there are good reasons for the time delay: backlog, education, preperation....
Just venting I guess and getting a bit discouraged.
Thanks for listening.

Hello,
Don'the be discouraged.... I had lost 7lbs and was sad I didn't get weighed on my NUT appointment. They told me I was weighed not long ago so she didn't need too.
Yes there is a backlog but Guelph hospital is helping out with the surgeries. I was approved in December and I was asked if I wanted a transfer for my surgery only as my surgery date would be enough sooner. If I stayed with TWH it would be in June....Guelph should be middle of February
So hanging there and don't sweat!! The NUT appointment isn't bad at all.
Good luck!!
