Cooksie we are in this together then cause my mandatory supervised diet starts tomorrow!!! Hoping that once these 6months go by, I'll get a final approval and date before 2013!! Kinda bummed that it's around the holidays BUT I guess if I'm serious I'll have to deal with all the thanksgiving and Christmas goodies -- best of luck to u!!!

This is a time to do research and to mentally prepare yourself for this surgery. It is not easy. The surgery isn't a quick fix. It's still hard work. But when the big day comes you will say it was worth the wait. Good luck.

Where are you at?

[raquelrdgz 41]

The 15th is good I was afaid he'd say the 31st of every month but he said the 21st -yeay!!!!!!

He really didn't put me on any strict diet he just told me the same thing the nutritionist did!

I'm in Houston- where r you?

[cooksie 124]

I'm in Alabama . I have done everything but see the dietician!

[raquelrdgz 41]

Is ur family and friends supportive?

I am in the same boat as you.

My insurance says they want the six months also, which I just found out about today.

So I am not sure if my doctor is going to count last weeks visit is number 1 or three since I have seen her every month, had my sleep test last month.

The next one is the 11th of the month. So either it could be end of Aug or I may have to wait untill Dec. cause I will be starting Grad school in Sep.

I am ready and don't want to put it off.
