I have a question, one that you may not be able to answer, but the requirement for my surgery (aetna) is that I have no "net gain". Is that overall or month to month?

Like if I lose 10 pounds one month and the next month have a 3 pound gain?

Thanks

I strongly suggest you get this answer from the correct source. Either you call the insurance company directly and ask them or have someone from your surgeon's office do so. Just my opinion. Best.

I agree that you should confirm with your surgeon's office, but "net" refers to the final amount - as in net salary after all taxes are removed. I imagine that means that your final weight can't be higher than your start weight. But again - confirm with the experts!
