We have BCBS of TX and my weight loss surgery was approved, but we have the insurance through my husbands employer and they are requiring extra hoops including proof that I have been obese for 5 consecutive years. The problem with this is that I had achieved a large weight loss about 3 years ago. And gotten to a healthy BMI only to gain it all back. I've done this my entire life... Up and down. You would think they'd WANT to see that I've had success losing weight before?!! Anyways, is there any way to get around this? The years previously and since I've had a BMI of at least 38-42. Thanks!

The surgeons office is who called to tell me that I was approved through BCBS but with these stipulations. Should I dig further?
