July 2020 Surgery anyone?
I was devastated, believe me. But I am in Florida and it is crazy down here at the moment. I am trying not to be selfish, I know hospital beds are going to others with much more important agendas right now. Its a week by week things the scheduler told me so lets hope I can get rescheduled in a few weeks!

What are you doing to stay on track while elective surgeries are postponed?
My surgery was cancelled 3 days before!! I was so upset. I'm going to stick with the liquid diet but not be so strict. I don't know when my surgery will be at this time. I'm upset, but I understand. I just keep in mind that I am approved for the surgery, the hard part is over, just the waiting game now. I m ight start back up at the gym or do 30 minute walking sessions a day if I can. But its so hard with my shifts at work.

Aetna new requirements
I was approved. Just needed 4 months with nutritionist with 1 pound of weight loss. I started in Jan. So I don't know if I was grandfathered in or not. It was really easy to get approved with Aetna for me. No crazy hoops to jump through. Just needed a psych eval that I did online. A scan of my gallbladder and and H. Pylori test, that was it.
