kmorri 1,689 Posted April 5, 2016 it all depends on your insurance requirements.....but I think 3 to 6 months is about average from what I've seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm so excited but nervous at the same time Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App That's great! some insurances require medically supervised weight loss ....ranging from 3 to 6 months...which is what takes up most of the time leading up to surgery ....but on the other hand some insurances don't require that at all....Your surgeon's office will be able to provide you with the information regarding your requirements. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
