No required weight loss for my insurance, but I was also given a six month dietician requirement.

I'm another one who is glad about the six months. I've learned so much and have had time to practice new methods and habits.

I am almost finished with my 3rd of 6 month diet, it has been moving fast, I am losing about 4 pounds a month. feeling pretty good, I am finally getting used to eating at least 5 times a day! But I guess that is the norm after the surgery! Good Luck in the future!

I don't have a 6 month supervised requirement through my insurance. I just need to do the psych eval and nutrition eval. Then everything gets submitted for approval with insurance. Once approved, then I do the blood work and ekg and other tests needed for the doctor. I have BCBS of MA. They are great!

That is really quick and a lot less tests. Even though when I started I thought 6 months would never get here it really is going by fast.

I am on a 6 Month supervised diet to qualify for my surgery. Already have done a few support groups and 2 dietician visits. One more dietician visit then 2 with my primary provider, plus my psych eval and finally can meet with a surgeon!

I have United for insurance and when they first told me six months, I was discouraged but it's passing very quickly! I'm on target to meet with my surgeon in August.

I have to drop 8 pounds to qualify to move forward as a requirement as well.

Anyone else looking at a similar timeline or better yet, in Maine?

I am also a little more then halfway through as I have my fourth appointment in 12 days -I literally have a countdown app on my phone lol- when I found out about the 6 month diet I was so upset i figured I can do it myself in the time so I didn't even start. I wish I started sooner cause I'd probably be getting my surgery already. It is going by super quick though :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
