Hello everyone.! I am still in the pre-op early phase. I've met with the surgeon last week 07/21/16. I start my first month of my 6 month waiting period required by my insurance in 2 weeks. 6 months seems like such a long time but I will be patient and absorb all the information and advice that will help prepare me for this life change. Any advice from those who had/have to wait 6 months or longer on how to remain patient and what to do in the meantime would be great.! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for that.! I'm trying to look at the 6 month wait as an advantage and not a burden. Your reply has helped with that. Thanks again and good luck with your journey as well. You are off to an amazing start. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi.! I am just starting out as well. I just had my consultation with the surgeon last week. My insurance requires 6 months MSWL as well with my first appointment counting in August. It seems like such a long wait. But trying to use the time to get myself mentally prepared as possible. Good luck to all of you fellow newbies Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
