Thanks ReadyNewM3!!! Ik ur doin great....

Does anyone know a way or has been successful in speeding up the 6 month diet for insurance purposes ?? I am so ready for surgery.

I did but it was an insurance requirement not the doctors. I was able to provide documentation showing I had attended weight watchers for two years and spoken with my PC multiple times regarding my weight in the previous six months.
