They sent me to weight watchers

So the requirements to get my band is 6 months of weight watchers. That's cool my insurance is paying for it! :ohmy: But I'm ready for my band ALREADY!!:smile:

HELP!!!! Does anyone have medi-cal/medi-care..or molina insurance??

:wub::eek::thumbup: So I switched over from Kaiser Permanente insurance because I heard that Molina insurance covers bariatric surgery...I feel as though I'm getting the run around but I'm not too sure. How do you go about the whole process. I talked to Molina and they said I have to do 24 classes of Weight Watches.. which is fine but they span over a period of 6 months..and I still have yet to receive the voucher for weight watchers from Molina..Is there any loop wholes that I'm not seeing?? Can I go straight to the surgeon and get in there faster?? And is there any other insurances on Medi-Cal/Medi-Care that cover bariatric surgery??? ie. Aetna... Community Health Group...

The Beginning ...

So I had my daughter in October 13, 2008. I married my husband December 4, 2008. I had my son October 21, 2009. After I gave birth to my son I thought with breastfeeding and eating somewhat healthy I would lose my "baby fat" and go back to me.. ShAyNa.. well here I am 9 months later and 80 pounds heavier. I just don't understand. I have literally gave up trying to figure out what is going on with my body.. I want to and try to work out but it hurts so much and I run out of breath so quickly because of the extra weight that I am carrying now. Between having no sleep (being up with the babies) the stress of certain family members running a muck and my husband not really understanding thinking that I don't try hard enough and/or care.. I believe the stress of everything is keeping this weight on me and not going anywhere. That is why I turned to weight loss surgery. I, at first, was leaning toward the by-pass..but after doing a bit more research I decided on getting the band. I'm nervous and anxious about the surgery..but I'm extremely excited! The only thing is that my husband doesn't support me in the surgery..so of course that hurts. I would support him in anything that would make him happy not too mention alot more healthier..I don't know we'll see.
