Congratulations. Which hospital? Any Opti?

I'm taking a total of 17 days and know I may be a little tired when I get back. I'd love a full three weeks, but listening to other members on this site, many go back after 2 weeks and some take 6. It just depends on what is available to you and the recovery time needed.

Literally not long now. Best of luck.

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.

They said I could be getting 2-3 weeks of OPTI

I am going to Michael Garron (formerly Toronto East) they said expect a surgery date about 4 weeks from my appointment.

If they follow similar guidelines as TWH then it could be 4 to 6 weeks off. However you will have a lifting ...pushing and pulling restriction for 3 months.

Not long now!!
