Newbie !!
Today, I met with my surgeon,and found out that my insurance requires a 6 month supervised diet. My advocate projects that my surgery will be about November. I am so ready to do this, and kind of upset that I have to wait so long. On the other hand, I am thankful to have insurance that covers the sleeve !! I love my surgeon so far, very down to earth guy and very easy to talk to . I can't wait to join the rest of you on the path to a better,healthier life !
I know it sounds like a long time but it really flies by I have 2 more months of mine left, use the time to complete any other requirements, if you have any, and to educate yourself about the procedure, welcome to the forum you will find a wealth of info and support here, good luck to you
I'm Still a work in progress, I wont give up the quest to reclaim my life, I will be whole again someday!

Misty,
My entire process was 6 months.
I finally had my surgery last week on the 13th.
There were many times I was so ready to give up simply
b/c I was frustrated with the process.
But knowing that the process was part of the deal
and that if I did not abide then no surgery....helped
me get through it.
Stay strong!!
