Topic: RE: Somewhere along the way, I've lost myself...
It took me 3 years pre-op to lose the first 90lbs and 7 months post op to lose another 90lbs so the post op loss is fairly average I think... But I did work my butt off so I'll take that compliment, thank you very much! lol You can see before & during pics on my profile page (I sent you a friend request) but I haven't taken after pics yet - I suppose it's time for more 'during' pics now though :) Most of the questions that you asked are on my profile page too - including dates & wait times... I did lots of stuff - I walked both pre & post op & after I got a little confidence, I went to the gym... Before surgery I cut out all of the white stuff (sugar, bread, flour & pasta) and replaced it with whole wheat instead & found healthy 'replacements' for the things we really liked to eat... It hasn't been easy, but I'm really glad that I did it!
Congrats on your referral - that means you're on your way!! I know the wait times are long, but hang in there - it's worth the wait! Sorry I didn't answer all of your questions in this post, but I have a sleepy little man here who needs to go to bed! :S Anyway, have a look at my profile page & if you still have any questions just let me know :))

wow thats amazing congrats....
and you did it in such a short time i am so impressed your are a great insperation and excited for you. are you going to post before and after pics? what other than eating did you do to help with this quick weight loss as i am 368LB . also you live in NS also how long did it take you to get a date once you were refered? My Dr just refered me tofay 2/24/11 and i am so excited but yet discouraged when she said it can take up to 2 years or longer

Topic: RE: Vitamins!!!
You could try adult chewable vitamins like, Jamieson Vita-Vim Chewable Adult Multivitamins, Centrum Adult Chewables or One A Day VitaCraves Gummies. Something else you may want to try, crush your multivitamin and put it into a protein drink. It makes it easier for the body to breakdown and absorb. Hope this helps.
Topic: RE: NEW INFO---WLS CLINIC MAY 3rd
I think they have the clinics once or twice per year. The people who are invited are the ones that go on the list for surgery... I know there are people here who know more about this than I do though - where is everyone??? :S

Topic: RE: NEW INFO---WLS CLINIC MAY 3rd
I was referred to Dr. Ellsmere March 4 2010. I was talking to Diana last summer and she had told me I had at least a 2 year wait. Two years is a long time or really seems like a lifetime to me.
How often are the WLS clinics? Are they once a year? If so the people who are invited to join are the people who will go for surgery soon?
