What were BC/BS requirements? I'm a little nervous that I won't be approved because my BMI is only 34 - but I have sleep apnea, fatty liver disease, and high cholesterol.

sandy you need to eat eat eat before you go!! U have to have that bmi of 35. Mine was borderlline but I found that I have shrunk! I am 5''4 insted of 5'5 !!

Stuffing myself like a Christmas goose, Loretta! How long did it take for BC/BS to approve you?
