I want to know is why we have to go on a program with our doctor for 6 months before they'd consider if your a candidate. Isn't having a BMI of 40 enough. I dont know what to do, do i go to my doctor, i alreasdy told him i have a consulation so now i have to go back and ask for him to put me on a diet. i just did WW from Oct to April with a bare loss, isn't that good proof.
