Hi. I am new to the forums and to my surgery journey. I have been overweight my whole life and I am now at the point that I am ready to make the life altering step and have surgery. My insurance requires a 6 month doctor supervised weight loss program (done) and a six month course of Health Education classes, which I begin in Jan. My question is this... Has anyone taken these classes? What are they like? How long does it take when you are done to get the surgery?
I am hoping to have the surgery in early summer. I am a teacher and have some time off. I would like to do this without taking sick time.

Thanks for any input!
