Most people spend months circling this decision because the real questions never get answered straight. How much will I actually lose? How long will I be out of work? What does it cost per month? We built a tool for each one — free, private, and no email required to see your result.
Seventy-five dated answers to the questions everyone asks and nobody answers straight. Tell us your procedure, your body and what you really do all day — warehouse floor, nursing shift, cab of a truck — and get the exact PTO number, a milestone calendar, a lifting ladder, your diet stages, and a downloadable PDF with an employer page that names no diagnosis.
Build my recovery planEach one answers a single question properly instead of five questions vaguely. Run them in any order.

You've already read the averages, and averages are useless — they describe a person who isn't you. Six questions about your starting point, your procedure, your activity and your relationship with food, and it draws your curve out to plateau.

Weight doesn't leave evenly, and nobody warns you. Your face changes first and everyone notices; your hips and thighs are the last to go and that's the part you were waiting for. Tap a body area and see the month it starts to visibly change.

The question that stalls more people than money does. A warehouse job and a laptop job are not the same recovery, and neither are a 30-year-old athlete and a 58-year-old smoker. This one is sized to your body and your job — and every answer comes with a date.

Before anything else, find out whether surgery is even on the table for you — and which procedure fits. Height, weight, the health conditions you're carrying, what you've already tried. No sales call required to see the result.

Most people carrying extra weight have never been tested for sleep apnea, and a large share of them have it. It matters twice: it's exhausting you now, and your anesthesia team needs to know before surgery. Two validated questionnaires, then a written report.

Upload one photo and our AI renders you at your goal weight — same face, same pose, same background. Run the Weight-Loss Calculator first and it uses your projected number, not a guess.

Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro — they work, and they only work while you keep paying. Put what you actually pay next to a sleeve or bypass over 1–15 years, with the break-even month, what you've already spent, and what the trials say happens to the weight when you stop.

Slide the price and the down payment and watch the monthly figure move. We also publish the credit-tier breakdown — who gets which terms — because a payment estimate you can't qualify for isn't an estimate, it's an advertisement.
These three are built from the published bariatric guidelines — AACE, ASMBS and BOMSS — and exist to help you ask better questions. They never replace your own prescriber or surgical team, and every date they show is typical guideline timing rather than an instruction.

Nobody tells you what happens to your prescriptions. Type in what you take and get it back sorted — what typically stops before surgery and on what date, what keeps going, and what has to change form because a sleeve or bypass won't absorb it the same way.

Bariatric follow-up bloodwork runs for the rest of your life, and almost nobody hands you the schedule. Put in your procedure and your surgery date and get the whole thing back as dated appointments — including the ones three and five years out that people quietly stop doing.

Two or three weeks in, the scale parks itself and you become certain you have broken something. You almost certainly haven't. Two weigh-ins and your surgery date, and you'll see where your pace really sits against published patient groups — and roughly when this stall breaks.
Pick the sentence that sounds most like where your head is right now.
Start with the facts about your own body. Two tools, five minutes, and you'll know whether this is a real option and what else might be going on.
The part everyone actually wants. How much comes off, how fast, and which part of you changes first — with your own numbers in it, not a stock average.
The two logistics questions that decide it: can I afford the monthly payment, and can I get the time off without losing my job. Answer both here.
The tools nobody hands you afterwards: which of your pills change, which bloodwork is due and when, and whether the stall you're staring at is the ordinary kind.
Because a tool that holds your result hostage isn't a tool, it's a lead form wearing a costume.
Every calculation runs in your browser. Close the tab and it's gone — we never see the numbers you typed.
You get the full answer on the page. If you want to talk to someone afterwards, that's your call to make.
The recovery dates, procedure timings and trip lengths match what we publish on our FAQ and tell patients directly.
These are planning tools. Bodies vary, and your surgical team's guidance always takes precedence over a number on a website.
The next step is a conversation, not a commitment. No deposit is required to hold a surgery date, and you don't pay anything until you reach the hospital.
