Morning,
 I was looking at more catagories on OH and saw this program. Seems like fun and even more support.
My ques. is, do you have to wait to sign up once you have insurance approval?
My ins. requires a 6 month weight managament with PCP. I'm currently in month 2 and June/July will be my approval month.

RNY. I've been thinking of gastric for about 2 1/2 years. Finally decided to ahead with it since I found out that my thyroid is causing a slow mo' reaction to me losing weight. That is sooo frustrating. I loose 5 and gain 5 plus 2 more. I'll be finished with my weight pcp visits end of May.

Morning,
I"m in month 2 with the 3rd on 2/4.
I was supose to start my info class last june but I had a knee operation and had to focus on that first. Never the less, I'm moving forward now. I have to get my ekg and physical. Physical won't be until March and my last month for the weight management will be May. I'm hoping to get approval in June but I don't know how  long my insurance turn around time is.
I can only imagine how you feel right now. The sooo close that you can taste it stage.
