  1. Can people post how far out their surgery time was from their approval date? Most people seem to be scheduled 3 months after their approval. Also, did anyone use bcbsil?
  2. I haven't had surgery yet. About how long do you typically wait before you can take another sip?
  3. I went in for my original weigh in and the first seminar. My first official appointment is in November. I do have my psych test and sleep eval scheduled (Sleep study is Wednesday, psych eval is first week in November). I am hoping that if i lose my 5% body weight (or make great progress) before my first appointment they won't make me wait another 4 weeks before the next appointment. I was trying to find someone else local that was going through the process:). I have a friend that did it a year ago at buffalo general and she's very happy. Another friend of mine did it a few months ago in pa. Have you done anything else to prepare?
  4. I love in Amherst and just started the process. I am having dr Posner do it as well.
