  1. Hi Everyone! I am fairly new, I have met with my nutritionist and I will be meeting my surgeon tomorrow. To all of those with Aetna, In addition to the 3 supervised NUT visits were you required to do a supervised exercise regimen with a therapist. When I called Aetna to verify they basically read their policy and my surgeon's office said they have not heard of that only the NUT visits. I would just hate to do everything else and get denied because I didn't do an exercise regimen. Has anyone done this or heard of it ? Feed back would be appreciated!
  2. I am also a newbie, in addition to Nut visits , did you have to do any supervised exercise visits?
  3. C`41a2 you look great!!
  4. Where did you have your surgery?
  5. Thanks for the advice ! I will look into finding a center of excellence.
  6. Hi everyone! I am new here and I have a quick question. My husband switched employers last month and our new insurance does not start until September 1(Aetna). Should I wait until the 1st to schedule a consultation with a surgeon or should I wait until the 1st to see if it is covered. My husband and I have established that if insurance does not cover it we will finance. I honestly do not want to wait around for something that I am unsure of. The worst that could happen is they don't cover it and I could move forward with planning the surgery. Advice?
  7. I am still pre op but I've just told my husband and sister.... no one else knows of my interest in WLS.
  8. Eating just tuna fish and eggs .....yuck
