Default My Appointment Update

I had my 3rd appointment on January 24th.

I am so excited. My 4th and final appointment is March 7th. This is where I meet with the Doctor and together we figure out what surgery will be best for me.
My appointment on Monday was with the head Nurse and we went over some stuff: My food journal, the different surgeries and some updated news.

The updated news is that they now they have a new Doctor who is from Ontairo and will now reside in Edmonton to help with any Bariatric Surgery. Another plus is that he performs Lapriscoptic gastroplasty. Whooohooo. That is the surgery that I hope to receive. Faster Healing, not as painful as a deep and long incision and no tube through the nose into the stomache. I only discovered a little bit of information on this technique Sunday Night. So I need as much information as I can about this. Any help would be appreciated.

According to the Nurse, she thinks my surgery should take place in April. April is my birthday and I am so extremely excited.
She also explained that she was pleased with my journal entries and how I have been eating healthy and she was also pleased about my recent weight loss success. But best of all she told me on my way out that I was one of her best patients. That means a lot to me because I feel like I have accomplished something.

Just thought I would give you all an update.

Hugs
Faith
