It’s been awhile since I posted life has been busy and amazing. In August 2017 I was referred to the Ontario bariatric network for gastric bypass. I had orientation at Humber river hospital in Toronto November 21. January 23 I met with surgeon Dr Hagen who explained the surgery answered my questions. March 19 I met with the internist Dr Glazer who confirmed everything was okay and as long as I passed my trios appointment I was clear for surgery. I was so excited it seemed like time was standing still but in reality it was flying by!!! April 3 I had my trio appointment which is meeting with a social worker nurse and dietician. The nurse will go over your meds and what you will take afterwards and immediately after surgery. Social worker tries to figure out why your overweight and if there’s any reason mentally why surgery wouldn’t be the best option for you at that time and if you need more help they send you to the psychologist (I believe). The dietician goes over what you’ve put down as your meals over 3 days and will give you pointers on how to eat better if need be and also tried to figure out how your overweight with what your eatting. I have PCOS so unfortunately weight gain is always something ive dealt with. I have never been skinny. So passing my trios appointment was a great day I was so happy and within a week I had a surgery date of June 6 2018.
Wow!! What a change!
