You Will typically need to get a machine and be using it consistently to be approved for surgery

I had my first class January 3rd and got a surgery date of May 28th. I was told from the beginning that the process with meeting all the different people and satisfying all the insurance requirements could take anywhere from 3- 6 months so I guess I'm at the longer end of that estimate.
OMG congrats first time I got nervous was during this class. It's really going to happen soon.
I went through a different process than you. I am going through Humber River. I had orientation on Nov 9th and didn't hear back for appointments until Feb9th. I was finished and approved by the whole team by the end of FEB except for the internist.
I met with him on Feb 26th and he sent me for a sleep test. I had a follow up and was approved by him on April 15th. I pick up opti on Friday and surgery will be on June 17th! 
I was just diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. I was shocked as I thought the test was a waste of time.
I think the only thing different is that we need to have our machines with us for surgery.
Ginnny, you beat my post by like two minutes lol. By the time I posted mine yours was up!!
Good morning :)
My mom made it here last night so we are just hanging out today. Maybe getting some groceries.
Accountability: really good yesterday. Still plugging along on the monthly challenge. I will say that protein bars are a really slippery slope for me so I need to work on finding things I like instead. Last night I had cocoa almonds from the states.

Me again! Told you I would try - hey two days in a row is pretty good! I did a leg workout this morning, might not have been the best decision since I have to play ball at 9:00 tonight. Oh well. I will survive LOL.
Happy National Dance Like a Chicken Day!! Actually its a real thing but its also just an excuse for us to have a potluck lunch here at work!! It's open to all of City Hall but it will just be the regular visitors to the lounge that participate I'm sure. I made Taco Dip which I can enjoy without the chips. Just listening yesterday to what people were planning on bringing there will be very little choice for me that isn't carb laden. Choose wisely Ginnny.

B - tuna sandwich on 35 calorie bread
