Jules Foute Nelong
Dr. Jules has been fantastic since the beginning. Always very thoughtful and considerate. He goes through everything and makes sure that you understand what is happening, and he came and saw me every day I was in the hospital. And, he isn't to bad to look at either. heh

First Appointment with the Social Worker...
posted on 10/18/11 7:06 pm
AND MY LAST!!!!

Got the Green light from her, apparently I am mentally prepared and stable enough for surgery!

I made my appointments with the nurse and dietition on different days then the social worker to speed up the process a bit.

When I was in yesterday they weighed me and I was down 4 pounds from my first visit on Sept 30th. So it looks like the changes I am making are working. Hopefully I get the green light from the dietition and the Nurse next visit.

I am prepared for this, it is not something I went into lightly, it is something that I talked to my husband about for months, and then I started the process and stopped because the clinic I was with just didnt care, I switched to guelph knowing that i would add at least another year to my wait, but it was worth it to me. Now I am with Guelph and they CARE about their patients and want them to suceed and they listen to me when I say "No I am not an over eater, an emotional eater, and I dont get up at night and eat without knowing...I am just fat, I have always been fat, and I had a few bad years where I ate out a lot and getting my weight back down is NOT easy". can you tell I really like the guelph clinic? lol.

I dont post on the forums much because I am not a forum person, but I do enjoy being able to sit down and write what I am feeling about my journey. So for anyone reading...Thanks!
