I'm in month 2 of a 3 month medically supervised diet as required by my insurance. My first month I lost 17 lbs. This last month I had a harder time staying on track and also weighed in when I was seriously bloated from menstruation. As a result, I gained 8 lbs. I'm terrified that insurance won't approve me. I'm confident that I can lose this month and that I will have lost weight overall during the 3 month period, but I can't erase that +8 for this months weigh-in. Please, if anyone has gone through this, can you tell me how insurance handled it?

I think if you had a net loss you will be okay. 17lbs that first month was a huge amount! Good luck!

I agree with the above poster. I think they'll look at the big picture - overall loss and your commitment to stick with a program. I'm pretty sure there were a couple of months when I was up, too
