Hi all! I just found these forums and will be starting my appointment process in the next few weeks.
I got my requirements from my insurance company, which requires 3mo of supervised weight management and then evaluation from surgeon, a separate recommendation from physician, clearance from mental health provider, and a nutritional evaluation.
I have my first seminar with the bariatric group on 12/12 and my first of 3mo appointments with my doctor the next day. I also switched my WW online to WW meetings to have my weigh in card available for my doc (insurance says WW ok).
I'm a bit nervous, but excited as well to begin this process. I'm looking more into the sleeve, but I still need to chat with a surgeon for further recommendation, especially since we will be TTC a year or so later.
