I have my Surgery date

[MsB7 64]

Today I went to meet with the surgeon for my All Consultation and I was given 2 dates. The first date I had to decline because of a pre planned Family trip. So August 24,2016 is my Sleeve Surgery date

Were you required to complete the nut and psychologist prior to date options?

@@Jenjen2016 if your insurance requires it you will have to complete those prior to having your paperwork submitted

@@Jenjen2016 I started 1/21/2016 and the Bariatric center that I used required that you complete a Nutrition class followed by one on one NUT appointments ( as many as needed but more than 4), Psych Evaluation, Monthly weigh ins, Labwork and PCP Letter of Support. All of these needed to be completed before you could meet with the Surgeon. The NUT appointments are vital here and if you don't do what is expected of you they 1) drop you from the program or 2) it takes even longer. My insurance did not require any of this.
