Hey all! Long time lurker to these boards while contemplating surgery! That has all changed today! I had my initial consultation today with my surgeons office. I have to complete a fitness test, sleep study, nutrition counseling and a mental health visit before finally meeting with the surgeon! All the appointments are scheduled between today and Feb 28th! at that point we will submit for surgical approval! Everyone on this board is great and I'm looking forward to making friends to go through this journey with!

I'm also thinking of making a YouTube vlog!

Please don't hesitate to write if you are in a similar stage and looking for friends!

Good luck everyone!

Good luck on your "adventure". If you have any questions, you can post them on the board or PM me. I'll be happy to share what I've learned these past 2 years post-op.

Good luck and please share your YouTube name!!! I have become fascinated with watching everyone's experiences with this process and I'm learning so much.

I will! Thanks for the interest! . I am in the process of moving and going through my pre op appointments so as soon as I'm settled I'm going to start filming!
