Hello. JAZZY4HEALTH there...Call me Yiv. I just saw this site and thought I would check it out. I would love a buddy of sorts on this journey I have begun. I do not know what process you went through, but here is an overview of mine. Going through UMASS Med Weight Center in Worcester, Mass. They required attending the informational (at least one) meeting, then began the appts. Intakes: medical, behavioral and nutritional. After completion began the Pre-Surgery Skills Group Mts. (2 behavior change and 2 nutrition). On Wed I will attend my 3rd mtg, the 19th my 4th. 20th I can call to schedule my follow-up w/behaviorist. Approx w/in 2 wks from call. Then about 2 wks later the appt. with the doctor at which time the surgery information will be narrowed down and scheduled. They say that is about a 4-6 week window.

Any pre-surgery diet suggestions you can give would be welcome. Or any other input. I hope that you can be my Band Buddy. Look forward to hearing from you.
