Mine was at Notre Dame hospital By Dr. Leclerc who has since retired because he has Leukemia! Mine was done on Jan. 26, 2012 and I've lost around 75 lbs. so far. What about you?

I'm from Sherbrooke but lived in Montréal for more than 7 years. I will be banded here in sherbrooke by DR. Méziat at hotel-Dieu in January (hopefully). May last pre-op appointment is on dec.21st.

Any of you had the band with plication?? or just the band?? i'm scheduled for standard band but i've been hearing about plication on this site a lot. It seems to be common in the U.S. but I havent heard anything about it here in canada.....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
