    Thanks for the feedback. I'm thinking I will give it a shot. I've never had trouble gaining lbs. My pre-op diet is only 1 week. And reqires that I lose 5 lbs.

  4. Should I gain 15 lbs to get the band?

    I've been a yoyo dieter all my life. I am now at my heaviest and miserable. To be healthy I must get the weight off and keep it off. 5 ft 5 in and 196 lb. 62 years young, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, back problems, high blood sugar, high cholesteral and high triglycerides I would appreciate some feedback on my current situation. Yesterday I had a consultation for lap band. Went in to the consult thinking I would self-pay about $10,000. Turns out if I gain 15 pounds my insurance will pay for everything. Should I try to gain the weight? I can't really afford to self-pay. Thanks for some opinions. Judy K

    judyk posted a topic in Insurance & Financing
    Can anyone tell me if Anthem BC/BS has a BMI requirement? Does anyone get approved with a BMI of 32.5 with complicating conditions? I have diabetes, sleep apnea, hypertension, high cholesteral, high triglycerides and leaking heart valves
