Hi there. I did go there for my preop assessments and enjoyed my meeting with the Nut but didn't really learn anything new. They did weigh me and we did look at an ideal weight guideline for me. I did end up losing 35lbs than they suggested. It wasn't planned but that is where my weightloss stopped. I never used their services post op as I live too far away. The staff was knowledgeable in wls though and it is the clinic where all of Dr. Christou's private clinic patients go. The nutritionist at that clinic did post their guidelines on Dr. Christou's website. You can check it out. Good luck

Thank you,

Did you quit before surgery? I will try the patch starting Friday... I hope it will help! :)

Thank you everyone for your kind feeback...  I am struggling right now and I am finding it very difficult to just quit. And I agree, they should of advised me to quit wayt before 30 day pre-op. I did slow down but to be honnest I have not been putting as much effort as I should have... My friend says just to not smoke 2 days pre-op? That is what she did but she was not a heavy smoker to begin with... Grrrrrrr, I am getting frustrated with myself... Wi**** was so easy, and considering I can't take champix it makes it even more difficult... I think I will try the patch and start on it this friday... But my concern is what if I quit and I am only 20 days away, will I not suffer from withdrawl at the same time? I don't want all that to affect my surgery?

Fantastic results Heidi...must be a great feeling!

Keep it up and I will soon be joining you!

Down 2 more lbs.  slow but sure.  Doris QC.
