@@bridgetsband I started my weigh-ins at 363 and ended my last weigh-in at 372. I have Humana PPO insurance, and I got approved this week! I think they take each case and review the weigh-ins against the medical notes from your bariatric doctor. So basically case-by-case basis. But good luck with your Band journey! -
