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.

Hi everyone! I'm from Peterborough, Ontario. About 2 hours north east of Toronto. Having surgery Oct 3!!

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.
