I have Anthem BSBS and have to wait 6 months so my first appointment was July 27 and surgery will not be until January or February. Totally depends on your insurance.

You are lucky. BCBS New Hampshire requires 6 months in a row no breaks. So what I thought would be a few months is at least 6 months. It's discouraging.

I too can only lose 10 pounds or I won't qualify. The problem is I have to wait 6 months so I have to only maintain a 10 lb weight loss but they put me on the pre op Protein diet so how can I only lose 10 lbs ?? Anyone else have this issue??

I'm just starting. I had my initial appointment on July 27th and also have to wait 6 months. I'm a little bummed because I thought it was 3 but that's ok. They throw a lot at you. It can be a bit overwhelming but I'm determined!
