Y last nutrition class is April 28th so after that I hope my surgery is scheduled ASAP

mine should be in either late may or early june. i had my first appt today and will be starting all the appointments in the coming weeks

That seems quick! I went to my first app on January 23rd and my last is April so this would be like a 4 month process for me

tricare dosent have any time limits or anything required like that. so once i got into the surgeons office, they handed me a list of appointments i need (wellness center, nutrition, psych evaluation ect) and told me to finish those and get sig's and when i am done with those, to come back. They said it takes about a month to do the appointments. so i called and scheduled my appointments, the nutrition takes 4 weeks to complete, since i'll be finishing that in late April and they are currently scheduling 2 to 4 weeks out for the OR they think i'll be in the OR in late may early June. Im excited to get this started. i was hoping to get the nutrition and everything done this month but no appointments avalible till later in the month and next month.

Aw lucky for you! I'm happy as well! I hope these last couple of months go by quick! I'm trieng not to think about it too much but it's almost impossible! Also are you having any problems trieng not to gain weight through this process?

well technically my "process" started yesterday lol with my first surgeon appointment. so thats not an issue. but i continue to gain weight no matter what i do. when i was on bc it stopped but when i got off, i could eat nothing and workout 24/7 and still gain fat... it sucks but thats why im in this mess and why i am going through with the surgery.

Im expecting surgery in June...My pre op appt. Is May 28th

You have your pre op date already?!! Lucky you! I just know that my last nutrition app is April 28

Yes! I go to my endo on the 13th and my pulmonary clearance on th 23rd of April and i ho get my clearance from the psy on the 21st this month and im done

I'm so happy for you! I just feel like I can't any longer with this weight and this process is taking so long

Awww im glad for u also and yes i am exhausted from this long process. Im ready for it to be over.....the end is near. Just hang in their with me...lol

I will it's the only thing left to do lol keep me posted!

Still have to do my EGD. Didn't have a 6 month diet. No psych evaluation, thanks to my psychiatrist writing a letter to the surgeon. That will save some time and money. Hoping for surgery in late May or early June. My next appointment is April 7. Good luck to everyone!!!
