Just Getting Started

Hi All, I'm just getting started with the whole process. My GP has started me on the diet and she is supervising my exercise. The question I have is should I call the surgeon now and schedule an appointment or wait a bit? My ins. says that I have to have 1 year of a doctor supervised diet and exercise. I'm not sure if I should wait a while or what. Let me know. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Kelly

Your more than welcome to check out my profile. The insurance told me the same thing and I had to wait the year however I had the surgeons office supervise my weight loss with monthly weigh ins and provided me with diet pills for that year, then they submitted for the pre-approval to the insurance. His office was great. Gave me plenty of time to learn all about the pros and cons. A very good learning experience. Good luck. Take care of you. Debbie
