Awesome! I don't have a date yet! I have another appointment with my surgeons PA on the 20th and hope to get an idea. But goal is Spring 2017!

I'll definitely be asking loads of questions regarding pregnancy. From what I've read, they say waiting between 12-18 months? Which has me curious about what birth control methods are best during that time. I imagine hormone ones probably wouldn't be the greatest? Loads of questions.

Hi all! I just found these forums and will be starting my appointment process in the next few weeks.

I got my requirements from my insurance company, which requires 3mo of supervised weight management and then evaluation from surgeon, a separate recommendation from physician, clearance from mental health provider, and a nutritional evaluation.

I have my first seminar with the bariatric group on 12/12 and my first of 3mo appointments with my doctor the next day. I also switched my WW online to WW meetings to have my weigh in card available for my doc (insurance says WW ok).

I'm a bit nervous, but excited as well to begin this process. I'm looking more into the sleeve, but I still need to chat with a surgeon for further recommendation, especially since we will be TTC a year or so later.
