Yes, definitely talk with your surgeon... I'm going to do the same as well.
I agree with you 100% after my initial impatience to the 6 month wait, I started to look at it as an opportunity to really prepare myself. Best of luck
I have BCBS in California. They only require a psych evaluation & 6 month diet. I was so bummed to wait 6 months, but everyone keeps telling me it will go fast.
@@dommie20 I'm curious about this too. I also have to do the 6 month deal. I'm do for surgery in January. However, when I had my first appointment(July 7th) there was no mention about gaining or losing. I"ve heard people say they were denied for losing too much :-/
