Hey friend! I went through Guelph as well - I am 4.5 months post op. The staff at the Guelph bariatric clinic were amazing, always felt comfortable around them and wasn't embarrassed about my weight or just being me like I used to be. I've had medical staff say "oh wow...." when I respond to the "how much do you weigh" question...doesn't make me feel very good. BUT, they're awesome there, you will feel like you have an added family!
-I also need to join that FB group...thanks for the tip everyone!
Oh My Goodness Linsie! You have lost 90 plus pounds so far!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats Girl! so so happy for you...I hope you are feeling great and enjoying the process..
