6 months flew by

:biggrin:I am getting so excited. On April 16th I will have completed my 6 months of required doctor supervised visits. I have completed all my dietician visits and my psych evaluation. I don't know if I passed it or not but I guess I will find out the results on the 16th. I also had to lose 13 pounds and as of last months visit I had lost 15 but I just went on vacation and I have to figure out a way to lose about 5 pounds before the 16th. While on vacation I tried a lot of different foods and didn't exercise like I should have been. Any advice on how to do that in about 9 days, let me know :thumbup:

According to my doctor on the 16th they will submit all the paperwork to my insurance company (Humana) and once it is approved, then we will schedule the appt with the surgeon.

I just can't believe how 6 months has just flown by! :regular_smile:

I have the dietician appts scheduled the same day as the doctor. They do both in the same office so that makes it very convenient. So actually I will have my 6th class on the 16th. The doctor does require that I complete a specific 3 classes then the other 3 are my choice. I have completed the three required classes.

I also have Humana, and heard about the six month Dr. Supervised diet. My question is, what if I do the diet and lose enough weight that I don't qualify because after the diet my BMI is too low? Is this is an issue for you? I'm right on the borderline with my BMI.
