Hi there,
Did you ever found out the reason why you are being denied? I am currently going through the process now and I am terrified of being denied. I started my 3 months with the nutrionist and turns out in the first month I went away on vacation for 10 days in which I had a significant weight loss so her words to me was to try to do whatever I can now to loose what I gained. I am terrified but I know is my fault
Hi!
In the first denial letter they stated that my bmi was not high enough(it was 37 at the time), and I did not have comorbidities such as sleep apnea, hypertension, or diabetes. In the second denial letter they stated they would stand by their first decision. However if you read their operative language carefully they do not state that one has to have those exact co-morbid conditions.
I would not get too discouraged about the weight gain, my bmi has been moving around the 30s for awhile, and when I was searching googled I do not have some of the co-morbid conditions that people were listing. So I gained weight intentionally to get my BMI in the forties( and I did that during my 3 months of supervised diet). Even when I did get my BMI to 41 they said, I do not have any comorbidities, which I do, so they chose to deny me that second time.
I called every day and the main thing they are looking at is do you have any comorbidities or has your BMI been in the 40s for two years. If you get denied I will be happy to help you through the appeal process.
