Congratulations.

I am just now starting the process. How has it been with you? I am a little nervous about the process and getting approved.

Hi smills!

I have a surgery date of Jan. 9, so I'm not too far behind you. My pre op appt is Dec. 28. Need to set up my psych evaluation and nutrition counseling. I'm excited, but a little nervous too. Doing lots of reading and research.

my process has gone fairly quickly. I had a bmi of over 50 so my insurance doesn't require a supervised weight-loss regimen. I just had to do a pre op and post op class..psych eval, chest xray and labs. meet with a dietician twice..in the process I also had a sleep study and found out I have sleep apnea. I just got my cpap on Friday. I also had to lose 10lbs before I met with the surgeon as of today I've lost 26.5

good luck!!
