Thank you, everyone! I’ve done my upper GI series which went swimmingly. I completed my at-home sleep study and was subsequently diagnosed with sleep apnea. I’ll be fitted for my CPAP mask next week. I completed my first of six nutrition classes, which was quite puzzling because it was like a common sense class - Nothing more advanced than kindergarten-level nutrition facts (choose fruits and veggies, not chips and cookies). I can’t believe I have to wait at least five more months for that. I’m hoping it becomes a lot more specific to bariatric surgery, then it would make sense! I asked the surgeon’s office when they estimate I’d be up for surgery and they think November or December. I requested an earlier first visit with the surgeon, so I’ll be seeing him on 6/6. Very excited to discuss things and ask questions and hopefully get an even better estimated timeframe. I’m impatient, can you tell? Lol! Thanks again folks I really appreciate you all.

Hi everyone, nice to meet you all! I’ve just started my WLS journey and have so many questions. I’ve been researching things day and night. So far I’ve had my intake appointment, set up an appointment for a bariatric psych eval, made an appointment for an upper GI series, set up three of six requires nutrition appointments all of which are one month apart, and my first appointment with the surgeon will be 8/1. In your process, what came next for you? About how long between your initial consult and surgery? Any input is sure appreciated.
