We missed each other by one day!  I was in Guelph for my first round of appointments on Tuesday.  I thought Audrey was wonderful and cannot wait to go back.  I'm due to go back on June 19.  Do you have a date for your next round of appointments?

Also, did they tell you that Dr Reed would be your surgeon?  I forgot to ask about that, but his name was on the requisition for the blood work I had done today.  Do you know if that means he'll be my surgeon?

My next date is June 15.  I'm not sure if Dr. Reed will be my doctor for sure but I know it won't be Dr. P-Hong because of my BMI. I just put Dr. Reed until I know for sure.  I'm not picky. LOL. I just wanted to feel like this is really happening.

I am also going through Guelph too.  They are all very nice there and seem genuine in their care and concern. The first nurse I met with seemed to be having a bad day, but Audrey is lovely.  

They told me that all the blood work requisitions are through Dr. Reed, but that doesn't mean he will be your surgeon.

Hi Jenn!  I haven't been on here for over a week and I'm so glad I found this post with my back-reading!  I am so happy for you!  Sounds like you are making some great changes.  I'm in a funk and need to get moving and journaling again.  It was May1st last year when I stopped drinking pop and started taking better care of myself. ( Michael had a Coke tonight and I can still feel the pull!)  Anyway, just so glad that you had a great experience at Guelph and I hope we can have a visit sometime!  I like your "one day at a time" comment.  Tomorrow is a new day and I/WE CAN do this!! Take care, Sandy

Thanks Sandy!  I don't blame you for being in a funk this time of year.  I would be too if I were working.  LOL!  We need to plan a get together soon.
