No date yet, not until after I lose the 20. To be honest I'm afraid it'll be the hardest weight to lose!

Hi if you don't mind me asking which insurance company are you with? I have BCBS Illinois and my surgeon [emoji40] has approved it and states the insurance only requires a pysh an d nutrition class. I see others on here with the same insurance that say they have a 6 month diet and exercise. Im in Georgia so maybe it varies by state.

You may want to call the number on the back of your card and ask what the criteria is to be sure. I did find this info though
