  1. Don't give up!!!! I was thinking the same way. I had surgery May 27 and have not been very successful. I had my fourth fill on Wed (10/26) and I have finally reached my sweet spot and I'm loving it. I now have 9cc in a 11cc band. My doctor says she has never filled an 11cc that full, but everypone is different. Good luck and just believe you'll get there.
  2. Thanks for such great information

    Youre doing great!!!
  4. I have Anthem also. I live in Alabama. No 6 month diet plan. I called customer service and got all the requirements before I ever went to my surgeon so I knew I had to pay 20%, psych eval once I got all that done I gt approval 6 days later. Good Luck!!
  5. I think you can still reach your goal. It's gotta start coming off with what you're doing already. Best of luck to you on this tough journey.
