I went through the Red Deer Program and yes it was a long wait. I found the program to be excellant, they taught me re-think about the foods that was eating. All the nurses were great and had helpful insite to my change in life.
I had the sleeve done April 9th and as of today Post op I am down 79 lbs. Yes it has been a challenge but I want my life back. I went up large stairway yesterday without being out of breath yesterday.
Good luck, its worth the wait.
