  1. Glad to hear there are others haha! Sometimes it hard to not have anyone to relate to. I had my first nutrition visit last month, and I go for my next one Dec 28th. My insurance doesn't require I lose weight either I hope your insurance counts your previous weight loss visits. I was bummed about having to wait, but I think for me it's better so I have time to prepare for the new lifestyle. Good Luck on your journey!! We must keep in contact!)
  2. I am new to this group, and so happy I have found you all. I have struggled with my weight for many yrs, and finally decided to do something about it. I recently started the process to get the gastric sleeve. My BMI is 35.9, I have pre-diabetes, and other weight related issues. My insurance requires 6 months of nutrition visits which I have completed 1 so far. I'm nervous that my insurance (Highmark BCBS, Community Blue Flex) will not approve, but my Dr seems quite confident that it won't be a problem. Has anyone else had low BMI and approved coverage.
