  1. Thankyou..... Keep me updated on how long it take to get your approval after you submit.... I'm trying to get an idea of when due to a family vacation being already scheduled.
  2. Brand new to this, just starting my 90day diet required by insurance. I've got a BMI of 35 barely but have also struggled my entire life to loose weight and KEEP IT OFF.... I've been questioning myself weather or not I was making the right choice. I currently have a 5 yr old and 6 month old twins..... I'm so glad I read all the positive feedback on this...I have a very supportive spouse and a sister that's willing to come stay and care for the babies. DOING THIS'nnn
  3. Ok, I am getting started on my 90 day that's required by BCBS FED as well as getting all my medical documents from past 3 years...BMI has been 35-40 and hypertension as a co-morb but im so nervous I'm going to get denied because in 2011 I went thru a divorce and got smaller than I'd been in my entire adult life and my BMI was 34.7.....2009, 2010, 2012, and 2013 it been over 35.... I'm also boarder line diabetic and going fir sleep test.... Anyone have any info or insight on this? Do I loose weight on the 90 or fail to get approved, anyone know if BCBS FED uses initial weight before 90days or after 90 days?
  4. I'm just now getting started into this process. I have had my consult and will do my first nut appoint tomorrow..... My first of so many question is.... My insurance requires a co-morb in addition to 90days supervised diet plan, then file to see if I'm approved..... My question is: is the 90day a test to see if I can loose weight without surgery or see if I'm dedicated enough to do this... Do loose weight or fail to loose to ensure I get approved???
