Sorry.I though you already had your surgery. Yes.over here in NJ is the same. I went through 6 months nutrition before my surgery.

I'm so eager to get the surgery that it's starting to be depressing 6 months is a long time to wait to have surgery

Try 9 mos... the struggle was real, but during that time I got inform, read books on gastric sleeve, the diet part, getting your mind right on why we eat the way we do, trying to learn to like exercise... so take this time and USE it constructively... it's so worth the "weight"...

I am new to this process also. I am in Kansas and would love to find someone

that is in the same phase as I am. I met the surgeon and nurse yesterday and

need to lose at least 50 lbs before the surgery. I am meeting with the Dietician on 5/10. I have to travel 90 miles for all of my appointments! I am on Medicare and have already been approved for the vertical sleeve gastrectomy. I have been reading a lot of the posts here and have gathered a good deal of information.

Good luck to everyone out there struggling with weight issues.

I'm just starting. I'm looking at November for my WLS. I see the dietitian this week too.

Hey everyone I too am in the beginning stage. The funny thing is I haven't even had my consult yet ( 5/16). I only have to do 4 months with the nutritionist. I've already done some of my pre op testing and have appts set up for a few more. I'm hoping to get a July surgery date.

Hi, I am just starting the process as well. I had my first appoint yesterday & have 5 more nutritional visits as required by my insurance. Hope to get approved Nov/Dec. 6mths to learn nutrition & learn abt the new life we'll have after the surgery.

Blessings to us!
