I'm from British Columbia Canada but went to Montreal for my RNY. My surgery was on Sept 21, 2015.

I'm available if you have any questions or support or anything :)

I am in Calgary and had surgery Jan.8th/16. It definitely has been an interesting ride with many emotions! But I am glad that I did this:)

Hi betterhealthahead:). I actually started the process 3 years ago, but I wasn't planning on surgery. My doctor thought it would be good to do the classes and get more info. I did all of that by the summer of 2013. Then I used the info I learned and went to the monthly support groups. In the summer of 2015 I decided I wanted surgery, so started that process and met with my surgeon in October and then had surgery in January. For me it went quick once I made the decision, but I know others have waited or are waiting a lot longer. I think it was the timing that worked out for me because they had a new surgeon starting.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
