The time lines really depends, each clinic is different, but the wait could be any where from 6 months to more than likely over a year. Alot depends on tests you may need, appointments, sleep study, if you have any issues with your health that need to be dealt with before they can do surgery, also depends on the wait list of others a head of you. I know it sucks!! Believe me we all know. 

But in the mean time try to educate yourself as much as possible, practice better eating habits, cut down on pop, caffeine, sweets ect. Your time will come before you know it. Just keep smiling, and keep us posted :-)
