So, I haven't even had my initial consult yet with the surgeon (seminar is July 2 and they won't let me schedule the consult until after I attend the seminar), but I am wondering about the pre-op diet and nutritionist that is part of the pre-op process/insurance approval requirements. If you end up losing weight, do they then discourage you from the surgery? I'm just curious to see how it went for those who have lost weight as a result of the pre-op nutritionist advice/dietary restrictions?

I'm just worried that somehow, I'll be given a "no" at some point.

Thanks for any insight!

I belong to Kaiser and they won't do that but you should list your insurance company so somebody who has experience with that company might be able to help you better

Good Luck!
