Hey Kyena - newbie to the forum and will be at WMC Civic early tomorrow for Behaviourist/Dietician meeting myself - you have flown thru the pathway since your B/D appt - hoping for no delays to move on as well....
Good Luck!!!
Core 2013, Dec 2015 Met with LEAF WMC, Apr2016-re-referred to TOH-WMC , July 7 info session, Nov 28 NP , Dec 5 Pre-surg 1, Jan 14/17 - NP and Dietician, Feb 7-Pre surg 2 & met Dr, OPTIFAST MAR 7, Rny Mar 28
So I met her today - she was intense and went over everything in detail. I appreciated it. She did stress certain things (if you don't follow the diet etc. you WILL gain ALL the weight back and MORE 
) , it kind of made me doubt myself a bit just because I'm used to having support around me rather than that doom and gloom but I understand why it's important to tell patients that.
I also picked up my 3 weeks of Opti.
She said that they have a few openings in 4-6 weeks (rather than 8-12 weeks) and asked if I would be interested - I said yes.
Just waiting on a call from the clinic (Civic Hospital WMC) to get the date!

It was not Dr. Neville. It was Dr. Kolo.....something. A long Eastern European name. It was supposed to be Dr. Mamazza so it threw me off a bit.
