How long will this process take?

Hello, I have just started this surgery track at umass in worcester,ma. I am 5'6 240lbs with sleep apnea and a few secondary conditions. I have my first consults with surgeon and psych next week. How long from these initial appointments is the average time until surgery?
I have been working with their weight-loss center for 6 months tracking food and exercise and have only fluctuated 5-10lbs. Nervous, anxious and excited to get the ball rolling.

    That's what I thought. I see a specialist in orthopedics there but had ankle surgery at Memorial.

    This is all very helpful. My appointment is Thursday and I feel very prepared thanks to this group.
