October is tomorrow and I have the info session June and this waiting game is so painful Question how long did you wait until your first set of appts? I know there is the nutritionist, surgeon, nurse and psychologist What can I be doing in the mean time? I've already dropped 15lbs in June that's not much but it's something. I'm just so frustrated with everything and it's a huge waiting game Thanks Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi all just found this app so impressed with it so far Happy to join I just started the process yesterday had the info session Now I'm to wait for the one on one meetings. The speaker yesterday say it can take up to 8 months to have the surgery. A bit about me I was always larger than everyone else plus being 5'7 I hid it well Well in '97 my mom passed away I fell into a deep Depression which lasted 6-8 months. I have no me worries of this time. I "woke up" and saw a different person in the mirror. Then I got married and have 3 beautiful children ( 13 .11. And 6 yrs ) and my life got put on hold. Now I am mentally ready for this. 5 yrs ago I hit 415 I was miserable. Since then I changed my eating and other things and I've managed to drop to 225 Last year I started to take synthoird meds for the thyroid and the weight is now climbing I am now 260. Can wait to meet others in the same stage as me. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
