My group meeting was also in April. I met with the team in July. I meet with the nurse, kinesiologist, and dietician in Oct. The wait is the hardest part of the whole thing until you actually go on the  pre-op diet. The team tells you exactly what they want from you.

I see the dietician, the nurse and kinesologist  on Thursday. I don't have to see the psychologist again.

I would add monk fruit extract . It is approved in Canada but I haven't seen it here yet . I bought done this weekend and love it. I like the idea of switching up my artificial sweeteners somewhat

I was referred in January of 2011 but was put on a waiting list as I didn't meet the criteria for the program at the time. So I am not the best person to ask about that. I'm thinking a year or more but perhaps someone else can  answer that.

Hi, do you remember when your referral was first submitted? I'm curious how long it took before you had the group meeting...

I can't wait!!
