What do you mean? It depends on which surgeon you choose and what your insurance requires. Probably a visit with the surgeon, a psych eval, several visits with nutritionists, an endoscopy, possibly a colonoscopy, a sleep study, an expected weight loss determined by your surgeon or insurance, and possibly a waiting period during which you visit your bariatric center monthly for monitoring your progress, possibly a visit with cardiology and anesthesiology. Then submittal to insurance for approval, a surgery date is given, and you have a pre-surgery diet to follow...then surgery.

hmmm. If telling him the truth is not an option, it doesn't sound like it's a very serious relationship.

Seeing pictures of just how big I have gotten. Not to mention when dropping off daughter at day care a little boy looked at me and said "your fat" and his mom laughed and shook her head.
