I have BCN and I had to go throught the 6 month program. I was really upset at first because I wanted the surgery RIGHT NOW! But, I used this time to go to support group EVERY week, and learn as much as I could. I practiced chewing chewing chewing and started replacing my morning bagel with a Protein drink and Protein Bars. I lost 30 pounds before my surgery on Dec 30 and I've lost another 35 since surgery.

Take this time as a "gift" to learn about a very MAJOR life change you are committing to. You'll be surprised how fast the 6 months go.

Good luck and keep in touch to let me know how you are doing.
