  1. Depression starting to kick in. I view this web site and read all the stories and look at the pictures of everyone who is starting a new life. I still don't know if I'll be approved for the surgery and may not know for the next 5 yrs. Surely if there is a waiting list of 5 yrs wouldn't someone still get in touch with me before hand? Okay, living in Canada we are use to waiting for certian specialists. I waited one full year to see an arthritis specialist. But come on!!!! No doctor in this city does bariactric surgery and it's so necessary that the doctor has 5 years of patients before me?!!? This just sucks. I'm going to have to just forget about this site and the surgery if I'm going to make it to 5yrs from now to see if I can have the surgery or not. F*ck it, I've always been fat and alone. this site is wonderful for those who don't have to wait but torture for those still stuck. I'm out , or I'll be boo hooing for months. Learned a lot here and may see you all in 2020.

      I live in New Brunswick. My doctor doesn't seem to care. I go monthly just for prescription refills of clonazapam and Tylenol #3 just so I can do my job. He use to care when he first started years ago but NB is so short of doctors that he's overwhelmed and doesn't have the time to give a good shit about me anymore.

  2. Is there a BMI scale on this site? I see that it was calculated when I put in my info and would like to know what it should be.

      Hey thanks for your help MissRobin and emma4884, Much appreciated.

      I should weight 130 -135 to be considered normal. So, I've got 100 pounds to lose. Can't wait for the surgery. It's getting too painful in my hips, knees and feet to continue to work. And hey, I have to work. Trying Atkins to get my eating under control. Down five pounds and hoping for 25 more just to make the job more comfortable.
