Hi all! I'm new to this forum and am thrilled to find such a plethora of information from many perspectives. Thank you for sharing you experiences! I have my first orientation meeting Aug 29th in Hilo Hawaii. I'm on the other side of the island in Kona, and I have Kaiser... The presenter at the informative meeting I went to last week talked about a 6 month wait till my surgery date would be set (I wouldn't get the procedure for at least 6 months). I have had a recent dietary plan called Slimgenics where I had minimal progress over 1 year and its documented... Would that bump me up the ladder at all?

Anyone with Kaiser? or from Hawaii here have the surgery?

Thanks!

Sophia
