I think you should be happy that you have lost 40 pounds in 4 months and think about this....where would you be if you did not get the lap band.....Maybe 40 pounds heavier.....Be happy about what you have there are others out there who dont have it and would be happy to be in your shoes...

You are not alone...I actually have Kaiser and they are the same way with the authorization but they also make you attend a 6 month diet and then there is still no a sure thing your going to get the lap band. I really think that the insurance companies are tighting up so that they dont have to pay out all the money...Good luck..I'm getting another insurance company next year and I hope (Finger Cross) I will start my process next year.... Good Luck...Keep your head up.
