Hi Chantal,

Thanks...my recovery is going along real well so far...a bit tough to eat at times but to be expected and adjusting well.

Bye for now,

Hi Everyone, 

Better late than never.. but Happy New Year! 

I had placed myself on the RVH wait list in 2007 I believe.. and had forgotten to take my name off the list after I had my lap band surgery.  So I was called in December to be informed of an information session which I attended yesterday.  As of yesterday I am officially on the government's wait list to be operated on within the next year - which might be faster than being on the wait list at Sacre Coeur which I am on as well...   
Now a little curve ball was thrown at me about 6 months ago when I got pregnant and my little bun in the oven will be due in May, so I am not really in a rush anymore but would definitely appreciate being operated on right before I would be done maternity leave, or a little after.  

So for anyone who has been on the RVH wait list for a long time, they are starting to do these information sessions that last about 2 hours (presentation from Dr. Court, presentation with the nurse & presentation with the nutritionist) that you must attend and then if you are still interested they will place you on the official wait list.  

injecting a needle doesnt sound appealing to me............. I hate needles, is it like an epipen...or do you have to pinch the skin and incert?

is it a large needle?

I do have the book and have done the NUT, its easier to hear it from someone who is going through it.  I was under the impression that vitamins were liquid form.....

do u have any hunger cravings, or not hungry at all?

Thanks for the encouragement...won't be long for you...!!
