BMI question, and 6 months too

Ok so I just saw my PCP and she wants ot try to use my weights from May till Oct for my 6 months diet. I saw her in May, then in the first week of June, the last week of June, didn't see her in July, saw her the first week of Aug and the last week of Aug, then today. My weights go from 218 to 211 to 205 to 210 to 218 to 222 to 218. She thinks Cigna will take it and I'll be ok, She said in the worst case they say no do more months and that is what we do. but no harm in trying. So I agree, but just wanted to know if any of you have been in my shoes and what your thoughts are.

Hope this works for you and you get approved.  I went for my first visit  with the Surgeon on April 16.  They said it would have to go from May 16 - Oct 16.   Keep us posted if it does work I will have them summit my paperwork early.

I am in the same boat as you, but I don't have Cigna..I have Medicare. 

I have to do 6 months also.  I saw my surgeon on April 27,2009. I saw my PCP 2 weeks later and I have been seeing him every month since then so that we can document my weight and vitals, I see the Nutritionist every month also to document weight, study materials and what to expect after surgery.  I have 2 visits left and hopefully will be getting a date soon.  Good Luck to you on getting your approval. Maybe we can all join the loser's bench around the same time.  Now that would be a great way to end the year.
