Hello I'm in Fuquay just south of Raleigh. I've started the process. Looks like I will have the majority of my presurgery testing done within the month. If all goes well surgery will be scheduled for the beginning of October!

R u doing gastric or sleeve?...and does ur insurance have a 6month wait?

I'm going gastric bypass. Insurance covers without doc supervised 6 month diet, thankfully. Saw that yours requires it. Ugh I'm so sorry.

Extremely! My date is tentative though. My husband and I are both having it done so we are trying to work out logistics.

Stay positive! I know it sounds like the pot calling the kettle black type thing but you can do this. If you're OCD like I am you can use this time to plan. I've been researching types of food, Clear Liquids, etc etc we can eat or will be eating. I've also been using this time to continue to research and read everything I can. We have been debating this for a year and have just made the decision about 3 months ago.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
