I've been told they use your initial weight. Of course if you ended up with a bmi of 30 or so after dieting I wouldn't be surprised if they would deny you. They could be like if she can lose that much with dieting then she may not be the best candidate. My bmi is 41, I'm not losing more than 6 pounds. Of course I physically could but I know my insurance company doesn't require that I actually lose anything except maybe one pound. Some insurance companies want you to lose 10 % of your weight.

Thanks! Good luck to you as well. My bmi is 42 so I got lucky they don't want a certain amount.

Today was my first appt with nutritionist. I also have to of a six month diet. No required amt to lose thankfully.

My insurance is making me wait six months before I can get the surgery, and I am going crazy with excitement. It's only been a month so far...I think I'm becoming obsessed with the thought of having this surgery. I constantly read about it online, I can't help but tell the people I know that I'm in the process of getting the surgery, and I can't stop looking at before and after pics of people who had the surgery. I just need to calm down but idk how, and I know my family is getting tired of me talking about. Is it just me or does anyone else feel the same way?
