I WISH someone would force me into pre-op diet. Motivation has always been my roughest thing, and since mine is a program that doesn't seem to require anything, I am struggling to keep myself on track for the surgery date. I'm jealous of everyone's pre-surgery successes and admire how strong they had to be. I'm just hoping to get a little under 400 by my surgery date.

I have Indiana Anthem BCBS. I had to do 6 months of check ups with my regular doctor and the psych evaluation. Supposedly they wanted a 5 year weight history too, but the benefits specialist at my surgeon's office said not to worry about not having that. And apparently they have the ability to submit by email, so she submitted it Tuesday morning and got an approval back the same afternoon. Very strange after all the horror stories I had heard.
