Like most of the other posts talking about their experience in Guelph, the staff (like most other hospitals) are wonderful.  I saw Dr. Agarwal for a 10 minute appointment on Tuesday, then drove back yesterday for the pre-op appointments.  Met with Dr. Borden (anesthetist) the nurse practitioner, had an ECG and blood work done.  Kind, efficient and informative.  No worries, just excitement.  Opti to start on March 8th - even looking forward to that.  I'm a thankful patient.

Orientation: June 29th, 2016, Surgery March 22, 2017. Pre-surgery: 16 lbs, (Size 2x, 18/20), M1: 19 lbs. (Size 1x, 16/18), M2: 13 lbs. (Size 16, XL) M3: 10 lbs. (Size 14/16, large). M4: 6 lbs. (Size 14, large/medium). M5: 10 lbs. (Size 14, solid medium - lol), M6: 9 lbs. (Size 12, medium). M7: 8 lbs. (Size 10/12 and small/medium). M8: 7 lbs. (Size 10 and small/medium). M9: 2 lbs. (Size 8/10 - small/medium). Lost 100 lbs by Month 9! M10: 5 lbs. M11: 4 lbs. One year: 6 lbs. Total 111 lbs. lost!
