The date depends on the surgeon's schedule, time available in the operating room, how many people are queued up in front of you, etc.

From my approval to my date was about 6 months due to surgeon's schedule. That's uncommon (to wait so long) but every surgeon, hospital, program, insurance is different.

Regardless of how long (or short) it takes, don't go back to old habits. Keep moving forward with your good habits, meal plan, etc and you'll do great!
