I actually don't have to do a supervised diet, but I was due to have surgery in August 2012 and had a major health issue that was discovered 2 wks before my surgery and I had to cancel it while I recovered. So technically it feels like I've been waiting 3 years! Haha Oh okay! Lol! Have they given u a approximate time your surgery date could be?

@ how long has it been for you 3 months or 6 months supervised diet?

I say go for it! The sooner the better! The sooner to start a healthier you! The semester will be almost over. You may be able to make some arrangements with your professors by then about your course work possibly taking exams earlier ect. With me I have my first consult on next Monday. I've only told a select few about my decision cuz not everybody will understand & most will try to talk me out of it!! I wish I could get mines that early but I have to do a 3 month supervised diet. So I'm looking at December for my surgery. If u want to private message me I'm here. I will cheer u on thru out your journey!! ????????????????????????????????????????❤️

Congrats!!! I have my first appt with him on the 26th of this month! Do u have any advice & also what insurance to you have? If I don't want to share you can private message me. Thanks love!!

Yeah I called on yesterday and the nurse that handles it said with my insurance its 3 months supervised visits with the surgeon. Getting my dr to do the referral to him the psych evaluation and meeting with dietitian. I was told to gain a little weight bc my bmi was 38. So when I went to my dr it is over 40 now. N the surgeon wants me to be 40 by the time I go to him. With the bmi of 40 you are automatically qualified. With or without co morbidities. That's for everything from what she said so I guess i would be looking at surgery around December or January. I guess it will be a fast process with getting everything done. My Insurance covers it all I assume. I have two insurance.

Hi I have my first appointment on the 26 of August! I was told that I would have to do a 3 month supervised with surgeon before being considered for surgery along with psych evaluation. I guess 3 months is not long and so they say the months pass by fast. So I guess January or February will be looking at surgery.
