  1. I am so disappointed because paperwork was sent in May 21 and my case still pending. Over a week ago I was told my paperwork somehow got overlooked, then Friday the insurance lady at BCBS told me she would call today but instead I end up calling them again only to find out that Friday...the insurance company sent another request asking my doctor for medical work. Its bad enough I'm dealing with relationship issues now this.
  2. I bought a shaker bottle to mix protein shakes but I'm thinking about taking it back. Any thoughts because I assume I will only be mixing shakes without ice. After reading some of the threads I now might want invest in a small cup size (16oz) blender. Hoping to get approval any day now.
  3. We will be joining the losers bench soon...good things come to those who wait Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S using VST
  4. My family know and my close friends. I was going to telll everyone else that I wad on weight watchers. People are so negative and my significant other also told some of his family members. I think he did it because he has in his head I can do it on my own....smh Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S using VST
  5. One more thing I also found out if the ball hadn't been dropped and I had an approval code, my surgery would have been today. #sadface Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S using VST
  6. Update....insurance company told me today that she will call me Wednesday. I'm praying she has an approval code for me. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S using VST
  7. Update.... I spoke with my insurance company yesterday after patiently waiting with anxiety for three weeks, only to find out they had overlooked 31 pages of paperwork. I was so upset I could have cried. Well as it goes on, I was told that I should hear something in two to three days. So disappointed right now.
  8. Happy for you, I am still waiting for insurance approval. Don't know why it is taking so long. I have been waiting for three weeks as of today. I'm sure I could be sleeved in June. So upset right now. BCBS show me some love please.
  9. I totally understand. Some family members told me that I shouldn't worry about my tummy since I will be 42 this year and not 25. That was an insult because you don't stop living because you pass 25... if my insurance will pay I'm going for it. I'm doing what makes me happy and feel good.
  10. I absolutely love this site. My significant other and my son both thought I was on Facebook because the threads are the same color. I told them that a new site has caught my interest. Now I enjoy school work, Facebook, & VST. All smiles
  11. I'm waiting to get my surgery date before I buy something. I saw this hott swimsuit in the mall the other day but I got a feeling that my surgery won't be done early enough to buy it and wear it this summer. Maybe I will buy some jeans and fitted shirt for my goal motivation after I get my date. Actually smaller undies sounds like a good place to start. :-)
  12. I am still waiting on my insurance authorization. All of my steps has been completed. I called the doctor office yesterday and was told it take up to three weeks.
  13. Best of luck. Hope you have a quick recovery.
  14. Adding to your list: I can't wait to: * look banging in some jeans * make my boo mouth drop when I wear something sexy * be able power walk and run without being out of breath
  15. Wish you the best. Today is your new beginning.
