I was just wondering how much weight your surgeons told you you have to lose before surgery. I just found out I have to do 6 months medically supervised diet before approval so I'm worried that I won't lose enough in that time or that I will get obsessed and lose too much and the insurance will think I can do it on my own and deny me

My surgeon asked me to lose 10#.

I lost 11# in the first month.

"When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

I habe to do 6 month suoervised as well. I havr to loose 25-30 lns but they don't want me to loose more than that

Lol have not gained but losing at the cutting line! Have 4 pounds to lose by next Thursday so I have been slacking on getting it done but one thing that helps is not eating pass 7pm it's very hard for me bc 7pm-10pm is my prime time to eat. Belly is rumbling as I write this too! Hahaha it's in shock

During my supervised 6 months I was just told to do my best. I lost 13lbs and then gained 9 back. Then when I met my surgeon last week he said he makes every one lose so much before he will schedule their surgery. So he told me I have to lose 15 lbs in 6 wks
