i just had my appt with my surgeon. she is great. i am so excited about getting the surgery. my insurance requires 6 months of supervised weight management so today is day 1 of that this 6 months is going to drag. have a good day

I'm excited for you. The waiting was the hardest part. But, I did have good documentation in my medical chart. It showed where I had consistently tried to lose on various diets ie: Jenny Craig, Slim-fast, Mayo Clinic diet, Atkins, tried various diet prescription weight loss and couldn't take them, all all this counted toward my attempts to lose. Hope you stay the course and do what's right for you. It was definitely a good choice for me.
