Your not paranoid you are just being cautious about what might happen and I commend you for that. Thinking like this will have you prepared and ready just in case approval doesn't happen. Hopefully your insurance is not going to want an 6 month supervised diet. A lot of insureance companies are asking for this. But if you can have your PCP write on your behalf about your weight and your weight history that could get you around the 6 month supervised diet. Make sure you have plenty of documentation submitted. Sometimes things like pictures or a video may raise your chances. Visuals are always good. My road to finally having surgery was 7 1/2 years. The main thing is always give them what they want and stick with the fight. A lot of people give up. Which I understand this is a very emotional time and it is difficult to repeatedly explain the things that have hurt you so much for years. I am sure you will be fine. I am praying for you.
