I got my surgery date! November 5th, at St Micheal's in Toronto with Dr. Rotstein. I've been so anxious waiting for this call for the past couple weeks. This is a relief to finally have dates!

**EDIT, They have now moved my surgery date to October 29th!

Congratulations!! That is fantastic news!

Any tips on how you made it through the process so quickly?

No tips, it just seems to be pretty quick here in Sudbury lately. Others from the area are also getting in for their surgery at about 9 months from referrals, unless there are certain tests or things that are slowing them down. I was lucky I suppose, no diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea or anything medical to worry about, just a high bmi. I've already been meal prepping, and eat on a schedule and pretty healthy. I have lost 130lbs twice in the last 7 years, I just can't keep it off for various reasons (hormonal mostly). I quit smoking prior to referral, so that helped. I am sending you all the luck! I hope you get a quick process as well!
