My surgen said that because my bmi is so high, the insurance company may not make me do the 6 month supervise weightloss, I have been seeing my doc every month talking about what I have been doing getting weighted and such just in cause but the surgen said that the insurance companys are finding out that they spend all the money for the supervision and then still spend it for the surgery? Has anyone heard of this?? Also after the new year things were suppose to change making it easier?? I have BC/BS of IL

So, I went to the appt to see about doing this, actually talked to my surgon. I have to go to the phsy testing. Acutally waiting to get that doc to call with an appotiment time. So, the surgon says that since my bmi is so high 64, I may get approved without the 6 months of some sort joining something like WW for 6 months. I am worry that me going to the doc getting weighted and such wont be enough and I will have to wait for this. I am wondering if anyone heard about getting approve quicker with such a high bmi? Second thing that has me worried is that I have been reading Carnie Wilsons book, and she said she knew when to stop cause she felt full and this was the tool. Right now eat so much to feel full, what if I need to eat more than I should I dont want to do this and not be able to stop or feel like I can like I do at times now. The last thing, is I am scared the dietation told me that I probley only lose a 120 - 150 lbs and that my body will stop me losing anymore, no matter what I do I wont be able to lose any more. So that means at my current weight I will only get down to a max of 250. Sure its alot better than I am right now but I want to get down under 200 and they are saying I cant with the lap band at all. Any feedback will be welcoming, Thank you all
