It's definitely 6 months.  I know someone that just had their surgery through Staywell & they were required to do 6 months

6 months with your PCP... I spoke with 4 different people at staywell and they all say they don't have a 3 or 6 month rule all you need is a letter of necessity from your PCP....but my surgeons office says it's 6 month...UF Health of Jacksonville.  So I'm confused but I'm at 5 months PCP visits and all my other requirements are done so I'll just see what happens.

Thanks for the info! 

So it has to be 6 months with an actual nutritionist or does the visits with my PCP count?

Staywell requires 6 months nut visits. Your visits can't be too far apart but they don't require it to be consecutive. Supervised diet is going to your Pcp discussing weight loss attempts & recording each weight per visit . Staywell will cover it if you meet the criteria.
