I've found alot of useful info on this site so far and I look forward to my future after the sleeve. Good luck John on you upcoming surgery. My insurance requires 6 months and I am in month two. I went to two weight loss surgery classes, two support group meetings and just had a Psych evaluation on Friday. I have a nutritionist apt on Oct 15th and a mandatory informational session with the Surgeon on the same date. Then I have to see the nutritionist 3 more times and one more surgery weight loss class. I am not looking to have the surgery approved until February 2014. I will be praying for your success and I will be following you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
