Great intro! We've got many similarities! Congrats on beginning your journey. I'm looking forward to following along. I have to do 6 months of another diet for insurance approval, but will hopefully have my surgery in May or June. Cannot wait to join the losers bench. I
Hi Shoshana!! I am pre op as well. Tomorrow I go see my surgeon and internal medicine doctor. Been with this process for nearly two years. Hoping tomorrow I get good news. I can relate to you 100% I have stayed away from people and outdoor activities cause I've fallen three times. Hurt my knee and right side by my hip. It's horrible to carry excess weight and not be able to keep up with your kids or friends.
Thanks you for the validation! It is hard withdrawing from people then all of a sudden it becomes your norm. Let me know how your appointments went!!! Fingers Crossed!!!
I enjoyed your intro video! I wish you good luck with getting your surgery date! Seems like a long process in Canada.... I'll look forward to seeing your journey. I'm having VSG in December. I just subscribed to you.
Hi Shoshana, I am in Toronto as well , I am going through the Bariatric centre at Toronto Western hospital. Hopefully we can bounce ideas and things we have learned off each other.. I hope to have my surgery by November as well.. I am supposed to be hearing about my surgeons appointment this week..
Wonderful introduction. I'm a bit earlier in the process than you are. The path we are going to walk will be difficult at times but, from what I understand, SO worth it. We also have a lot in common. I have three dogs and total "messy hair don't care" in my first video. :)
Thank you!!! Before you know it it will be your surgery day. Use this time to prepare. I always have messy hair by the end of the day lol what type of dogs do you have?
Me too on the hair. :) My dogs are all mutt-dogs. One is a German shepherd/border collie mix, one is some sort of beagle, and the other is anybody's guess. lol She's some kind of terrier. Your dogs sound adorable. That puppy must be a handful.
Isn't cuteness always the way? You look into those eyes and you're gone. I've had both pure bred and mutt dogs and they are both awesome. Dogs are just great, no matter what.
Love your intro video... and dogs - YAY !!! :) Looking forward to seeing your journey unfold.
Thanks!!!
Good luck! My surgery is in 3 days!!! Looking forward to your next update. :)
Thank you!!! Good luck on your surgery, can't wait to hear how you did!
