Hi all, I am having my surgery on August 2nd at TLBC with Dr. Yau. I am concerned about a few things I have read on this site, and am wondering if anyone could tell me about their experience with this doctor/clinic. I was not overly impressed with the call from the nurse, but am hoping the rest of the experience will be more positive! I am also scared to death that I will be unable to keep to the pre-op diet, since I don't eat cottage cheese and they only option the nurse gave me was yogurt. I love yogurt, but nothing but yogurt for 14 days...........if I could do that, wouldn't I already be thin?!? Looking for hope....hoping I am doing the right thing....please advise!!!! Thanks!:help:

Thanks Doddie! That is what I am hoping. It is hard when you don't live in the Toronto area, to know whose hands you are putting your life in. I have heard that Dr. Yau is the best, and the first, but I guess I am just getting anxious now that my date is set and it is becoming so real..... 9 days until I start my pre-op diet! The countdown is on......!

Hi there, I have surgery at TLBC on August 2nd and would be interested to know what your experience with the doctor/clinic was?

Thank you for saying that. That is one of my worries about the pre-op and post-op diet. If I could do that with sheer willpower (or whatever you call it) alone, then I could lose weight without paying 16K. That is what I am struggling to understand. If I am not restricted prior to the first fill, what is to stop me from being unsuccessful, as I have on almost every diet I have tried for more than a month..... I don't know what the answer is, but I keep looking for it!
