Awesome!!!! I'm so excited! I'm sure you are as well! I'm 5'5" cw260 gw125. Have fibromyalgia, borderline lupus and diabetic, high blood pressure and hypothyroidism. I want my life back and want to be active again. I love to run and exercise and haven't felt like it in the last 4 years living with this.

I didn't realize they do this in Calgary, for lower BMI people. That's great.

GoodLuck!!!!

Thank you! They will do down to a BMI of 35 if you have weight-related comorbidities. I have PCOS, anxiety, and depression. It's case by case though... my first surgeon didn't think the benefits would outweigh the risks and passed on my case. Dr Gill on the other hand accepted me as his patient. I will say I joined the clinic at a BMI of 40, which is the minimum for people without comorbidities.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
