  1. Hi, my date is set for May 28th at Toronto East General. I didn't wait too long, my first meeting (group orientation) was June 5th, it was worth the wait because the meetings prepared me for success! ????. Anyone else having theirs in May?
  2. My big day is May 28th! This is our year team, we are going to look and feel fabulous, all the best to US!
  3. April 7th is my pre op lol it's also the day before my birthday, my big day is May 28th are you on the optifast? All the best to you
  4. And yes you are right about why the surgeon suggested the sleeve instead of the bypass, I have less than 100 to lose however I'm barely 5 feet and 175lbs
  5. Thank you so much, so all the preparation before and after the surgery is the same also, like the eating and drinking doesn't change?
  6. Hi everyone, ok I've been wanting to write on here for awhile so here goes, I'm from Ontario Canada, I have finishes with all my visits with the bariatric team and my surgery is set for May 28th! My surgeon mentioned that I'm more of a candidate for the sleeve apposed to the gastric bypass, can anyone tell me if there is any difference between either surgery afterwards like the eating, recovery, weight loss...etc etc. I have been reading and preparing for the gastric bypass and not familiar with the sleeve. Also if anyone is interested my email is mariamassa@hotmail.ca for support. All the best to all!
  7. Wow! I felt alone till I read this post! I'm barely 5 feet and 175lbs, I have never told anyone my weight, and I evenly distribute my weight as well however I physically feel the burden of this weight as I'm sure most of you understand, my surgery is May 28th amd I can't wait to hear "you look great" instead of "all you need is a little exercise, not surgery"! All the best to us xo
