Losing weight prior to appointments with RN/RD/SW

Hi everyone! I have finally have my appointments with the internist and the trio next week, and I'm brushing up on all the info they gave us to make sure I can answer their questions correctly! I was just wondering how many of you had lost weight prior to going to these appointments? I haven't lost more than a pound or two, although I also haven't gained. Is that going to be a problem? Are they going to take my weight stability as a sign that I'm not ready for surgery?

Hi Lindsay,

Congratulations on your upcoming appointments!! At TWH, they didn't mind that I didn't lose weight, but they did weigh me to ensure I didn't gain weight.

You should be fine!!! :)

Good luck!!

In Hamilton it did not seem to matter at that point. At the preop they did compare it with out reaction.

Congrats on making progress!
