KSS - It depends on when you can meet with Dr. Wagner, the psych. The behavior classes are 5 weeks, so it depends on where you are in termsof getting into the next session. If one 5 week session just started, you will be at least 10 weeks before surgery, if you can start in the next session, it might be faster.
It also depends on how quickly you lose the 10% weight loss that is required. You can meet all the other requirements, but if the weight loss takes longer, you will have to wait.
I have seen most people scheduled for surgery 4-6 months after beginning the process.

Go with your highest weight and get the credit for every one of those blasted pounds that you lose!

Just wondering - what everyone's experience was in terms of the overall time frame? I had my first meeting with Nancy on Friday & it seems like everyone else was booked until the end of May. Now that I have made the decision to pursue surgery (although I am torn between band & rny), I am anxious to get all the ducks in a row.

I use the weight that I weighed in at my very first appointment with Nancy.

Hi, This may be a weird question, but when you calculate how much weight you have lost, do you use your starting weight from your first Dr appt or your weight the day of surgery.
Thanks
