Yes...Im halfway through my 6 months and am required to lose 10% of my weight. What we have been told is that not accomplishing this doesn't mean that you will be denied, but rather that it slows down the process. If we don't meet the requirement then its an additional visit with the doctor who assesses where you are at and may tell you to wait until you lose the weight, or may send you through if you were close to the 10%. My goal it to hit the 10% for sure.....I don't want to be forced to wait any longer than I have to...especially over something I have control over!! My sister also had the surgery via Kaiser and she didn't reach her 10%...she just had to meet with the doctor, but after that they sent her to the next step.
