    I only intend to tell the people living in my house and my sister in law who also had the procedure. Your employer doesn't need to know why you are out on medical leave or PTO (and if your company is large enough for FMLA, be sure to file for that to protect yourself). I will tell my boss that I am having a medical procedure completed and he is not legally allowed to ask any more other than when will you be gone and when will you be back.

  2. Starting my journey. My sister in law and I work for the same company and she had her surgery two years ago. She flew through the process and had her surgery in about two months from the time of her first meeting. Now our insurance has changed and requires a 6 month supervised diet. I see many of you are completing this but I was so disappointed that this would be a requirement as I watched my sister in law fly through the initial process. Who chose to use their family practice doctor and who chose to use a nutritionist with the weight loss clinic? I am torn as I know I can get into my doctor when ever I want to. I also don't know what to expect with the supervised diet. What does this look like and what are the expectations? Are there weekly or monthly requirements? Daily food journals? Meeting specific carbohydrate, Protein, and fat intake requirements? Thanks for your thoughts on this! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
