I just spoke to the drs. office.  I inquired about a revision surgery from the band to sleeve.  The secretary told me that a lot of insurance companies are taking 30 and over BMI's for approval now!
This just made my day since I am just about a 30 BMI.
I was ready to pack my bags for Mexico but now may not have too!!
Yay!

This is in the Buffalo area so I'm not sure about other states/cities.
