Ok, I called my surdeons office, and the nurse told me since I asked her what type of diet that have you follow. She told me it was a 1200 calorie Atkins type diet, with no carbs, mostly protien, and veggies. I just bought all the stuff I needed for a gluten free diet my PCP put me on lol. Now, she is telling me I can't eat that Grrr lol. Oh well I was following the other one to the letter, I am sure I can do this one as well. I will let you all know what I find out after the dietician meeting on April 3rd. I do know there is a weigh in first, then the meeting which she said will last about an hour and a half. She did tell me most insurance companies ask for this. She also informed me I did need to get the information from my PCP and that she would let everyone know just what they need to have. Just thought I would let you all know what they said.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
