That's awesome! I'm so happy for you. How are things going thus far with the shakes?
Nice to finally see some movement in this group.
I joined it so I could meet new people and often question my own actions. HA HA HA

Hi All,
I have been using the Ontario forum a lot just because there are a lot of frequent posters on there and a lot of info. Many people from Ottawa too. I will start posting here more too thought o keep this group going! I an scheduled for surgery on the 28th and I am super excited and nervous!
Good luck next week!
I had to see the psychologist because of some family history of things, i don't think that everyone has to. I was referred by my family doctor as well. I wonder why I have never met the doctor then. I may have to look into this.
Hi everyone,
I'm in the same boat as some of you and am trying to have a better understanding of what are the steps. I've done the Weight Management program with Dr. Dent 7 years ago and hope that it will make a difference as to how quickly I will be going through the process: Here's my information:
Attended information session: February 10 2012.
Meeting with Dr. Dent: November 20, 2012
Abdominal ultrasound: December 7, 2012
Seeing nutritionist and behaviorist: on January 15, 2012.
At my last visit with Dr. Dent, he said I was about 6 months away from the surgery. I'm just curious to find out what are the next steps...It is so nice to have this forum, where we can share our experiences and support each other on this journey.

which is usually the menu, the nutrition send me to eat 60 to 90 gr the protein for day, so i started to eat more boiled egg, greek yogurt, pecan, almond, cheese, fish and tuma. how about you...
Hello
Really i don't remember when was my first appointment almost 2 year ago. I saw my doctor almost 8 times. I finish all my test cardiology, sleep test, abdomen ultrason, blood test. I had a appointment with behaviour and nutrition doctor one month ago. Nutrition send me to change my eat habit, so i work on that now. I don't sure what is the exactly waiting time, I saw person who don't wait to much and other who wait for more time. I hope my day is close. BUt all this long process make me anxious I can't wait more.
Good Luck
