6 month physician supervised diet/ 3 month disciplinary program ;-)

Hey everybody! Praying all is well with my amazing group of people. Just a quick question. I hhaven't been able to get to my consultation yet due to not being able to take off work. But I have rescheduled for 3/30/2016. The question is when does the 6 month or 3 month program start? Do they set another appointment after the consultation to get it started or is all if that taken care of in the day of consultation? What does the consultation actually consists of? So many questions.. so nervous and anxious... any info is greatly appreciated ;-)

My consultation was with the nutritionist and it was counted as first preop appt

Agree with white dove.

Once you go in for your first- confirm the requirement- and make sure you are going monthly and don't skip.

I had two different visits--excluding the initial seminar--before my first one-on-one nutritionist visit, the first visit that counted toward my six months.

First one was a group nutrition class and introduction to the program. Second one was a long visit with a program doctor--not the surgeon--to go over my health, history, etc and specifics to my own history which would affect the approval process.
