I know the Canadian threads can be like yelling into a void but I'm so excited I have to yell!

I have an appointment with my surgeon at Toronto Western on August 7th! It's finally happening!

Has anyone else had their surgery with Dr. Penner?

That's amazing congrats you will have the best service at TWH i don't know Dr. Penner but I'm sure he's as amazing as the rest of the team there

I know many who had dr penner :) Just know that although you are meeting him, he may not be doing your surgery. If you need any more information, just pm me ;)

5 months post op and 59 lbs down. 20 more to my high goal - hoping to lose another 15 after that. The loss has slowed down but that's more because of summer and camping lol. Congrats everyone on their hard work.

Have a surgery date- October 19th! Very excited and looking forward with great optimism, although the 3 weeks of Optifast will be a challenge! Hope my fellow Canadians are experiencing success!

@@anewme2015 Good luck, and congrats on the surgery date! Do you get the Optifast from the hospital?

Thanks! And Yes I ordered The protein shakes while at the hospital and then they mailed them to my house.

Heyyy. I'm from ottawa Ontario. I'm living in dubai now. I miss ottawa. I went to college in toronto, it was the last place I lived in in canada. I've been living in dubai for a few months now. I also did my surgery in dubai.

Amazing success! You're an inspiration!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

I'm thankful I got through the weekend without eating too poorly. How nice it is to focus on visiting and being active rather than being consumed by what to eat and when to eat like I used to be during these holidays!!! Yay
