Hi everyone! I'm new but I have been reading a lot of blogs on this site that have been very helpful. I hope to hear from Aetna soon,it's been almost 2 weeks. I am trying to keep positive about geting approval. I have heard Aetna is picky?

But all is well, I have actually gained 9 pounds during the dietician visits which was 3 months long. I know once I get the band I wont be able to eat like this anymore. So I am enjoying this time, but at the same time ready to get seriouse because being fat aint cute. So thanks for reading,

hope to get some knowledge here.

you need to lose in order for the dietician to refer you for surgery...you're supposed to be showing you CAN change your way of eating - Aetna required me to lose I think 5% of my weight as well as all the other testing I did. You've had all your life to eat what you want, you need to wrap your head around what you're getting ready to do...not to sound preachy, but you DONT want to get denied....it's hard to get them to change their mind. Good luck
