Anyone with a 6month supervised diet?

Hi I'm almost done with my supervised diet but felling confused. Is the supervised diet consist of 26 weeks? I completed two sessions of three months each of 12 weeks. I don't want to get denied because of something so petty. Any advise is it completion of 2 (12 week rounds) or a total of 26 weeks? Am currently at week 22

I had a 3 month medically supervised diet. I just had to go meet my NUT once a month. I didn't have to lose weight but I couldn't gain any either. I believe if you go monthly it should suffice. Keep us posted. :)

I had 6 month diet too. Had to go once every month and the final one was after the 6 month period so techinically 7 months. My surgeons office was very familiar about my insurance and what they required I followed everything to a tee. I also couldn't lose any weight or would drop below 40 BMI and my ins requires 40. I even called my ins before starting to make sure I was on the right track

I go weekly but assumed since each round is 3 months long I would complete 2 and be done. Like I mentioned I thought I had two weeks to go but I was wrong I have 4 more weeks to go. Which I don't mind but I don't want to go below 41 bmi just like yourself. I've already lost 42 pounds and losing 6 more pounds will put me at 40. I'm scared if I go below I will not qualify. I'm super nervous and anxious, I just wished I knew already.
