Hey there! My surgery is scheduled 3/13 and I'm still waiting for approval. I started my process in July of 2012 and I just finally completed all the requirements. I thought I was done and just this week I got a letter from Aetna saying I need my weight history from jan or feb of 2011. Why do they want so many years from you? I was under the impression it was only 24 months. They do ask for a lot!!! Luckily I had gone to an urgent care in January and they weighed me otherwise I would be screwed. No other insurance asks for so much. I am seriously getting overwhelmed, I know exactly where your coming from. I really hope they approve us both. I called today and my approves is still pending. Lets hope I get an answer soon. Good luck to you!!

I am starting my process with Aetna do any of you happen to know how many months of nutritional class or supervised diet you need to complete? Some company's say 3 and some say 6.

Thank you :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
