Hi. I have had two visits with the weight loss MD. I have to do 6 months. I cannot complete any other of the required appointments until I have finished the 6 months and they submit my results to the insurance company and get approval to move forward. Then I have to see a Cardiologist, Pulmonary doctor and Psych. I'm hoping for a surgery date in November or December. A great Christmas present. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am just starting. I had my first appointment with the weight loss clinic last month. My insurance requires 6 months of supervised weight loss prior to approving surgery. I'm afraid if I lose too little the surgeon will not do the surgery and if I lose too much, the insurance will deny it because I can do it on my own. I really think 6 months is way too long. The insurance companies probably think a lot of people will give up in that time period. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
