i am 5'3 ish (give or take 1 inch either way) and weigh 210 as of today!!

my husband's insurance kicks in jan 2010 and it covers wls! (yay)

my bmi is around 36/37 now so to have it at 40 i will have to be 220-225! (ugh)

so i suppose i have to pack on at least 10 more lbs...this is the most i have weighed EVER..and i gave birth to twins and weighed less...waaaaa

does anyone have cigna greatwest and know how they work?? like 6 mo diet?

thanks for any advice!

Do you have any comorbidities? High blood pressure, diabetes, PCOS, high cholesterol.... Some insurance companies approve surgery with those of a BMI of 35 or higher with an accompanying problem.

I went through True Results in Scottsdale. Overall it's been a good experience.
