I did it!!! MY bmi is at a 41:) I just did my psych exam this afternoon and they will submit it to my doctor by wednesday. I a not sure what comes after that. I gues the approval letter from UHC. Then a date for surgery. I am so excited.

Good work! It's funny how a person can be so happy to have a BMI over 41! I was the same way...

Well i am doing the waiting game now. The insurance received my paper work and it is being processed. I hope I get approved this time.

How long did they say it will take to to hear yes or no?I just this last year got my BMI above 35 so I decided to try to get the surgery approved.I was denied the first two times.I did manage to get it approved or we were changing to United next year.

I have heard of people going in for a weighing with ankle weights on. Ever thought of a little deception? I was at a BMI of 36 and I have Aetna Insurance...so I just went self pay. But if there was a chance of me getting it paid for by insurance, I would have done anything.
