I've tried the one's from protica and they are great.

I meant to say Good Luck

Hello WendyRae, I also had my surgery on 1/4/08. I'm doing great. Goukod l

I understand how you feel my surgery isn't until Jan 4th. Don't worry the time will fly by especially with the holidays. Good luck

They are wonderful. I initially went through them and because of insurance requirements had to change. They were kind enough to find a doctor that would be acceptable to my insurance company.

Thanks Lonestar 5212 I'm very excited. It sounds like you will soon follow. My bmi is 37 and I have high blood pressure and currently take two medications. When will your diet end? Keep me posted.

jdubo414 good luck. It took about 8 days for them to approve me.

I have Aetna PPO and was just approved yesterday. I didn't have the 5 years bmi history consecutively but sent them 2002,2004 2005,2006,2007.

I was told some Docs want you to lose 5 to 10 percent of your weight to decrease the size of your liver and also the amount of fat around your liver. My doc said it was just a formality. I only lost six pounds.

Yes I'm in Texas. I did have to do a 3 mo supervised diet program and all the other stuff ( pysch eval, 5 year weight history etc.)

I'm currently waiting for approval with Aetna ppo

I also have aetna ppo and waiting for approval

I'm in the same situation. I've done everything they requested and now just playing the waiting game. My insurance is aetna ppo
