six month medically supervised weight loss not losing

[j morgan 0]

I feel so bad because I gained 5lbs during my supervised six month weight loss program. does anyone know if this could be grounds for my insurance Humana, to deny me? my dietician has given me positive reports because I have made some changes such as giving up pop.

How far are you? I am on my fifth month and i gained 6 pounds. My surgeon wants me to lose 10 pounds before surgery.

I didnt have to loose any weight...in fact I was told not to loose any bc I wouldnt qualify but i did gain wait during my 6 mo supervised visits w my pcp. No biggie.

I didn't lose any during my weight management. After I completed the 6 month requirement, I developed my own plan and am down 21 pounds. 30 more and I'm given the green light

If anything, I think it would be grounds for them to approve you, since you've now demonstrated that traditional supervised programs aren't effective. Clearly you need something more drastic.

Thanks Everyone for the replies. That makes sense if I loose they may not approve my procedure. I go see the psychologist at the end of October then I will have all my requirements completed for the office to send into my insurance! This was my first posting as I am a newbie on here. I am so glad I found this sight as I was really nervous and unsure when I began this journey, but after reading all the posts I am excited....still a long way to go thru the process that's if I get approved.
