I lost 20 pounds just from my pre-surgery diet which started on Aug. 8th. Then after my surgery on Aug. 16th I gained like 10 lbs while in the hospital from all the IV fluids. That's all gone now and I'm down 27 lbs from my starting weight on Aug. 8th.

I have Cigna too and it was really quick for me. Like a week between the surgeon's office submitting everything and me getting the call that it was approved. I did get a letter in the mail from Cigna that more documentation was required like the other poster above, but by the time the letter arrived at my house the surgeon's office had already submitted the additional documentation and it had been approved.

I had my surgery on the 16th as well and I'm not hungry at all. I eat one sugar free popsicle and I feel so full for a long time. I'm supposed to be drinking 60g of protein each day and I'm really struggling getting that in (mostly because all the protein powders I've tried so far are disgusting to me...).

Not long at all. They faxed everything in to Cigna on 6/14 and I got the call this morning that it was approved.

Just found out today that Cigna approved my surgery and we scheduled it for August 16th. I am so ready.
