Topic: RE: Needing support.......Getting nervus!
Hi, thank you for your reply. I went to a seminar (hope I spell it right) and the Dr. showed us all the operations , so of course I would want the Lap-Band. Then he says that there is an out-port where he would put on the inside of your skin to add the saline to adjust the band, now why did he say that , I hate needles. So I am not sure which one I want. I am 350lbs and need to do this.....He also said that before we meet him personally we would have had to decided on which one we want, so he hasn't call yet..I'm Scared and can't sleep trying to make up my mind....Please be my pen pal, I am always alone, and don't really tell anyone what I am doing as far as this is concerned. Once again thank you...Hope you are not scared....please let me know...My name is Rose, nice to meet you Theresa!

Topic: RE: looking for email/im/text pal in Ontario Canada, just starting journey with referral
Hi there,
I'm 46 and I am waiting for RNY surgery (date is set for September 22 at Toronto East Hospital). I had my referral sent in January and have completed all of my appts at Toronto West. My surgeon appt. was in early June and I've been waiting ever since.
I don't know what hospital you are going through, but it seems Toronto West is much more efficient at putting patients through and the one I ended up with. I know people who started the process a month after me, and had their surgery a month ago at TW. I'm not sure why TE is so much slower, but its a little frustrating. So, if you are in the Toronto area and going through that program, try to see a surgeon that works out of TW.
I have my pre-op appt. this coming Monday, so that is kind of exciting. Then two weeks after that, I will be starting the Optifast.
Have you had any appts yet with the social worker/nutritionist/psychologist? Well, it really is amazing how fast the time does go, and even though I still have another month to wait, it isn't all that bad compared to how things were a couple years ago where people had to wait years.
Good luck with your journey, and if you want a pal, please write. I'm 46 and live up near Port Hope, east of Toronto.

Topic: RE: Looking for Pals
Hi there, good luck with your surgery!! It will be done before you know it. My name is Catherine and I'm having a gastric bypass done on September 22nd. I'd love to have a pal! I live in Ontario, I'm 46 years old, a mom of two, and a student.
I'm really looking forward to the surgery (well, the result of the surgery I should say). I've been overweight all my life, and I can't even begin to imagine how exciting shopping for clothing will be once I'm a normal weight.
Well, good luck again with your surgery, and if you'd like a pal, please feel free to write.
