I went to my seminar in jan. didn't have surgery until June....6 months for me! Good luck with everything!

I just went to mine last night. Have to do 3 months of supervised diet and meet with a nutritionist and a shrink. After that we can submit for insurance approval so i am hoping within 6-7 months i can be banded.

I had to do 6mth supervised diet, nutrition class& psych eval. Tomorrow my last PCP visit and everything gets submitted to insurance. The 6mths went by really fast.
