I need some guidence....
So I had my three month appt this morning for the 6 month weight loss surgery, and I GAINED 6 POUNDS!!! I know I havent been doing that well, but 6 pounds is a little overboard! I went from 284 to 290!!
So I'm frustrated about that. My BP was high also, but I hadn't had my pills yet either so thats expected. But now I'm stressing over that stinkin weight gain! I just can't believe that....I am scared that my insurance company is gonna say that I'm not trying and is not gonna approve me in the end. But my goal this month is to lose that six pounds and a few more. I don't wanna lose too much and then have them deny me and say I can do it on my own. Because I can't!
I just need some support, and past expierences please! Thanks.....

In the words of Billy Boy Clinton: "I feel your pain."
Personally, I think you stand a much better shot at getting approved by your ins. co. now that you've actually gained some weight during your 6 month "study." This shows the insurance company that you may really need WLS in order to keep you on track since you can't do it on will power alone.

As long as your bmi is above 40 and you still have 100lbs to loose approval will not be in jepardy because of your weight loss. Just be more dilligent going forward. We all know how hard it is but stick with it. Let the record show your struggles and that you are committed to this.
