Excited but ready to get going

Hi everyone...I am in the 6 month waiting period , meeting with dietician every month.....how many of you out there have aetna and do they ever approve after 3 months or make you go the full 6 months. If they make me go the full 6, that will put me on a liquid diet thru Holidays.

I have Aetna and just got approved. They want 90 days of weight management - those appointments you are going to once per month. Just make sure you loose something - and do not gain. They needed clearance and approval from my regular doctor, the approval of the psychologist, and the notes from my weight management appointments.

Good luck to you and hope that helps.
