Congratulations. I have to wait 4 more months until I complete my 6 month medically supervised diet before my paperwork can be submitted. I almost feel like I can't wait any longer. lol Again, way to go.

I had to do the same...it seemed almost like a lifetime. I just let go of thinking about it and started focusing on other stuff. It was the hardest thing to do, because I seene everyone else getting approved and I still had a long road to go. But it will fly by so fast and then your papers are being submitted. Then starts the long wait for approval or what seems to be a long wait. Mine was submitted on the 29th of September and I got my answer this morning. Good luck to you

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
