Hey All, Just started researching about a week ago, though I've thought about the LB for a long time... Just wondering what the entire process is? I know it varies depending on one's state/doctor/hospital/insurance/etc. But from start to finish, what am I looking at here? This is what I know so far: 1. Visit a doctor (But who? a general practitioner? Or go to a LB seminar?) 2. Tests 3. More tests... Psych eval. 4. Submit for insurance approval 5. Schedule surgery 6. Pre-Op diet 7. Surgery 8. Post-Op diet 9. Fills, as necessary I'd love to hear the process from others who have been/are going through it! Thanks!

Also, I work full time Monday through Friday. Am I going to have to take a lot of time off to go through the process? Or have you guys generally found that this is easy to work around?
