Update:; I received the call that I figured I would get.....Mr. Frendle you have an exclusion on your policy for the procedure. You can pay out of pocket if you would like. ya yeah, if I had 15K I would have done that already. Oh well. Guess I will be back to YO YO dieting.

Went to a seminar today, My 3rd seminar so far. I really went to see if my UHC would pay for it. I am nervous, but not getting my hopes up.

Thanks for that information. I am going to start writing all this down and see how it goes.

I do not want to get my hopes up, cause last time I was excited about it and of course "EXCLUSIONS" kept me from changing my life. thanks for all the comments.

thanks for the responses. I have been to 2 meetings over the last year. My wife is leary of me doing this. I have tried all sorts of the usual stuff that you see on here. Diets--WW,Atkins (lost 30) gained back and more, Southbeach, online stuff as well as hypnosis. I think my wife thinks I can do it the old fashioned way. Diet and exercise. I am fairly active, play softball 1 night/week. Golf when I can, not like that is alot of strenous exercise. I know it is portion size. If I could only eat 3 oz of meat and veggies and be full. I know I could lose weight. I have sleep apnea pretty bad. Diagnosed in 8/06, sleep with a CPAP now and take cholesterol meds, allergy meds. Thanks for listening. :help:

I recently changed insurance to UHC, and I have read that they have a pretty good rate of "approving" the surgery. Is it best to go to the Dr's office and meet with them, or should I call the insurance? Also, anyone know of good Dr's in Dallas? Thanks, J 262 lbs goal 160 or close to that.
