I'm a newbie, having my consult with the surgeon tomorrow, can't wait to start my journey...anyone else from Canada??

Hey! I'm from Alberta. I have my surgery scheduled for July 22 and I can't wait!

Hi, I live in Ontario, Niagara Region, where are you located? I'm being banded on June 28 in Toronto (Slimband). I am so ready!! Especially after this two week pre-op... Going to Orlando this weekend so that will get my mind of this diet, and the surgery. Itsn't it strange how so many of us are excited about this surgery and starting their new lives with the BAND!

Good luck with your consult tomorrow. Keep in touch.

I am from the GTA area in Ontario. I was banded Nov 24, 2010, and am down about 75lbs.

Best decision i've ever made

That's what I want to hear!! While I am so excited about this, some of the stories in this forum can be a bit scary. Do you experience some of the symptoms that I read about here such as throwing up, reflux, etc? How do you manage them if you do?

I'm booked for my surgery August 5 at surgical weightloss in Mississauga, anyone have surgery there?
