How soon after...

[ams2436 0]

I turned my paperwork in the night of the lap band seminar and today (4 weeks later) got a call to set up my bariatric appt with the dietician, nurse, & Pshyciatrist. My appt is next week and I just wondered how soon did most people have their surgery after this step. I realize this may be totally different for each person, but it is becoming so surreal now, and I just want to get some ideas. Thanks!!!:smile:

Great question. I did the same thing you did and just found out last week I was approved for surgery. I go for my medical and behavioral assessments this coming Thursday. I can let you know what they tell me when I'm done.

good luck to you.
