This is my first post on BariatricPal and my journey started today!!!! I had my initial consult with my doctor today. My starting and heaviest weight is 286 and I'm 5'10. This is my last opportunity at this due to this being a lifetime of yoyo dieting. I met with pa, dietitian, and surgeon today. I have to have a upper endoscopy scheduled for February, pysch eval, cardiac clearance and clearance from a hematologist. My insurance doesn't require any structured diet but the surgeon requires a 3 month structured diet which is understandable. So I just wanted to introduce myself and hope that I can get some excellent feedback from BariatricPal. I will keep you guys updated on my journey... Here we go...

Welcome and congratulations on getting started on your journey, time will fly by and you will be getting your surgery date before you know it.

Read and learn as much as you can on this site, there is a wealth of information here and many folks that are willing and ready to answer your questions/concerns. You got this!!

I wish you all the best!!
