Finally...my First Consult

By madisonPA

· 402 views

Finally after what has been seeming like years.....I have my first consult this afternoon. :) .Im sort of nervous but Im so ready to start this process. After reading most pple blogs/profiles its seems as if the whole process takes about 6 months (for people who didnt need the 6mos diet requirement) .I am beyond ready. I have a million questions for this surgeon so hopefully Im his last patient for the day.lol. I have my fingers crossed and wishing for the best. :)

    I did not require 6 month supervised diet, so from start to banding was two months. It would have been sooner because I received approval approx 1 month after starting but my surgeon was booked solid til march.

    congratulations on the start of your journey!
