Let me start over: any other low BMI bandsters here?

I know there is a forum on here for this but no one has posted since early December in there. My current BMI is 34. If my insurance doesn't approve me, I plan on continuing on as self pay, although I may switch surgeons just to have my doc closer to me than the one I'm going to right now because they take my insurance whereas the first one I thought I wanted didn't. I live in a very rural area and can only choose city doctors, 2 hours away one way.
Anyone else here with a lower BMI trying to get the Band? If so, would love to hear from you, either here or in PM!
Blessings, Michelle
