Hi All.. Can somebody tell me how long is the process from start to finish

Depends on your insurance and yours doctors and you. Some people go from first appointment to surgery in a month or two, some have been at it for almost a year.

I started mid August and had mine done October 31st. But I have a cousin that started almost a year ago and isn't scheduled until dec 19. It depends on your insurance, how long it takes to get all of your requirements completed and your surgeon. Some want you to loose a certain amount of weight pre op. that part is up to you and how you stick to the protocol.
