I went in for my original weigh in and the first seminar. My first official appointment is in November. I do have my psych test and sleep eval scheduled (Sleep study is Wednesday, psych eval is first week in November). I am hoping that if i lose my 5% body weight (or make great progress) before my first appointment they won't make me wait another 4 weeks before the next appointment. I was trying to find someone else local that was going through the process:). I have a friend that did it a year ago at buffalo general and she's very happy. Another friend of mine did it a few months ago in pa. Have you done anything else to prepare?
