I'm from Gatineau as well and I'm on a list for Dr. Garneau at Rockland md/Sacre-coeur and Dr. Jette at Pierre Boucher.
If you speak French I can suggest you another forum that helps a lot.
Who is your surgeon? Are you on a list?
Thanks
Has anyone here had Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Quebec? Need info on Nutrition.
I have been to the Ottawa weight management to meet the nutritionist since mine is in Quebec City and I am from Gatineau, QC. I received booklets and great info on pre-op diet as well as post-op diet from the lady in Ottawa and was thinking that everything was cool and I was doing great. When I spoke to my Quebec, she refuses tons of stuff that are permitted in Ontario.
For example, I have to eat a baked potato with nothing on it, no light mayo n'no tzaziki as a dip for veggies, no splenda in my cereal, no protein shakes, no mio, crystal light etc. I am not diabetic n'or close to being and so I don't understand.
Anyone else here gotten the same as me as far as info? I don't know what to eat anymore :(. They may even not operate until the winter and are making me go on pre-op diet for 6 monts??? Is that normal?? They told me to keep my weight stable and that I don't necessarily have to lose weight. Confused. :(
Thank you for your time, Melanie
