How's everyone doing?

I had my nutrition class yesterday and feel inspired.  I see Dr.cheung next Wednesday and see the social worker on the 30th. 

Hoping to get my dietician appointment booked soon so I can let work know I'll be off that day. I'm in London and going through Windsor so it's a good chunk of my day . 

I felt like it was slow but now that I have these appointments feels faster and more real. 

I didn't feel all that inspired after my nut class - I feel more inspired following the what did you eat today threads. :) I'm glad yours was good though.

Hello there, I had my surgery at Humber on June 6th. From orientation to surgery was just over a year. I have been lucky no complications. It felt a bit over whelming the first few weeks. Just follow your surgeons orders and you should be fine. You'll get in a routine and before you know it you'll be losing like crazy. I've lost 45 lbs and am off of 3 meds so far. Also am in the process of getting off the C-PAP machine. I couldn't be happier. 

That's so incredible!!

Hi!  I haven't checked in much since surgery - I try to stay more active and open on Instagram (I love photos!)...  Find me @need.to.run.81.rny - I had surgery on May 6th, and I'm 79lbs down (including Opti).  Summer has been great, and I just got my clearance to start working out, so I'm super excited for that!!! 

Found and followed.  Glad you're doing so well!

I followed you too! :) love your Instagram.  

I am also in Durham... I'm going through Humber River hospital.  I've been through all the assessments and have been approved for the surgery.  My next appointment is to get a date and buy the optifast.  I am very nervous, but excited!  Can't wait to meet the me I was supposed to be!!!

I am also going through Humber River.  I'm just a few weeks behind you.  My trip appointments are at the end of this month.   Any advice for getting through those appointments?

Who's your surgeon?  I have Dr. Klein.

I am with Dr Hunh (pronounced "win").

My only advice is make sure you know about the surgery - the phases you'll go through afterward, what the actual procedure is, the cost, and the potential side effects.  They "quizzed" me to make sure I knew what I was getting into.  

Beyond that, it is a really simple series of conversations.  Be honest and I am sure you will do just fine ?
