It has been 2 months, but, the wait is nearly over.  Meeting with the surgeon tomorrow at TWH.  I am so nervous.  I am afraid of a delay or getting rejected.  I know this appointment can take a little more time, but, what can I expect?  I know my vitals and weight etc are done, but what else?  I am on pins and needles.  I can't tell if I more more nervous or excited..

I met with my surgeon today over Telemedicine since I am in North Bay.  We just went through any questions I had, what is to be expected.  Took my weight and what medications I'm on.  Appointment lasted about 20 minutes.  My surgeon says within 2 months I'll have my date.. VERY excited :)

I will have my date within two months.  His clerical staff will call with my date.  He said about a month before I go I will have to travel to Toronto to do the final meet and pick up the Optifast.  I just ordered my Bariatrics vitamins from the states so I'm all set.  Come on... I'm so ready to tackle this!
