AETNA-Did anyone gain weight during supervised months and still get approved



Recommended Posts

yes guys im guilty of gaining weight during these past 3 mnths of my pcp doc visits..usually its been a gain the 5-7 lbs of my original weigh in at my 1st consultation which was 243 and now im at 250...my bmi is right at 40 at 243...and im scared to loose weight so i have been trying to get in some pounds to get to like 41...but now im wondering if they would deny me for gaining....1 point on my bmi.....if so....ill try to do a lil fast/speed diet to help me loose these 5lbs before my final doc visit on 4/30...just wanted to know if anyone was denied or approved with a weight gain showing on file. thanks!!!

i also skipped a month on this 90 day thing...so i ended up having to prolong this stuff to 4/30 to make up for the month i missed in jan, which will be my 4th visit required...did anyone skip a month but make it up and still got approved...?

well, I can't answer your question but was compelled to talk. Sometimes I am just chatty. At any rate, I have been doing the same 90 day thing for Aetna. I have lost about 5 but can't seem to stay on track. I keep thinking that I am never going to be able to eat a big meal again, and IN IT GOES! I am going to have to fast these last few weeks for my final weigh in. I hope you get approved because I feel your pain!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
