Recommended Posts

Just recently joined from Brandon, Manitoba - going next week for second meeting with surgical nurse, dietician, and kinesiologist. Hopefully get the go ahead to meet with the anesthetist and surgeon pre-op.

Morning PP is Dr chris Andrews your surgeon? He was mine and he is very good. Maybe I,ll see you at one of our peer group meetings for Victoria General group. My surgery was May 31 and I am down to 218 lbs, I haven't been this light since the late 80's, I feel great and I am getting use to the fact that food tastes different to me and is not as dissireable as before.

Good luck! It is usually bypass but you can request the sleeve. If you're with TWh you will more than likely get it but do your research - Bypass is the gold standard of weight loss surgery. If you do end up at Toronto Western, be sure to call regularly for cancellations- it will significantly reduce your wait times. I have 2 friends still waiting for surgery- I had mine on January 9th.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
