Sooooo I'm done wit alllll my appts .. I'm meeting with my surgeon this Wednesday .. Super anxious I lost 9 lbs which was what my insurance required... But I gained it back ???? heart breaking. However my doctor never mentioned to me having to lose weight it just said on thr paper ( sample letter ) lost 3 lbs .. Weight unchanged.. Idk I'm just a little anxious and excited about the whole thing because I never do stuff for me.. This is the one thing in making about me.

My insurance didn't really tell me anything about losing weight.. Even though I lost 9 lbs I gained back.. Idk why I was following it all.. Let's see hope for the best.. I have Health First NY .. I meet with my surgeon this Wednesday.. Fingers crossdd

Do something for you, if those are your dreams and he's not supporting them.. Then it's time to move on.

A friend of mine had a baby 4 months ago... Healthy beautiful baby girl

Mine have me my copy.. In case the doctor didn't get it.. Through fax. Be he was pretty clear that I was prepared for the surgery... My mental state was at the right place. That I want to lose 100+ lbs and I'm willing to put all my efforrt and commit to it.. So that should be good

He said I was a "sassy and brilliant young woman with a zest for life" teehee Mine wrote I was well put together and prepared for the surgery.

Thank you, now I just have the approval to worry of

What did he write ? Mine wrote that I was ready to commit for the surgery, that I want to lose 100 lbs or more

OMG whoa, I passed mineeeee so I was worried for nothing ???????? I asked if I did good, he said yes.. I did fine

Urns out I was worried for nothing .., ACED that psych Eval ????????????????????????

I'm here now. Super nervous and anxious ????????

What questions should I dodge ? Like do they wanna hear I'm depressed because of my weight ?

What type of questions do they ask ??

Supper nervous.. Today is my psych Eval... One step closer yikes .. I feel super sick like throwing up almost .. Ugh hat do to do what todo to ease these nerves

Thank you so much...

Thank you hun.. Ugh I hear it's not good if you're like depressed ..

Wellll I'm just going to tell mine that I know the surgery is a tool, and I don't expect it to do the losing for me. I'm ready for the healthy lifestyle. I need energy again, I'm always tired.. I lose breath quickly and I feel dizzy when I lose breath ( urggggg ) are you ladies from Ny ? If so do any of you have Health First ????

K so I'm going for my Psych Eval tomorrow .. Super nervous about that.. How does that go ???

It's perfectly normal, I almost chickened out at the last minute, but then I thought I don't want to keep living in a size xxl clothing that was getting tight and being tired all the time, from that day on I tried to stay positive, and cut out saying certain words like "can't" or "only". Being 4 months out my only regret is is that I didn't do this sooner, I have so much more energy and love being outdoors spending time with family and friends. I haven't even gone through the approval thing yet. I'm at 247 I actually gained like 4 lbs from when I started and my bmi is 46.7 hypertension.. Pre diabetic, triglycerides ugh super nervous I have health first

Hi Tammie! I have almost identical problems with a BMI of only 36.4. I was approved in less than a week by Humana. I think they are all easing up on their requirements. It is however nerve wracking to wait for their decision. My surgery date is June 10 th and I am beyond excited. Keep in touch!AHHHH so lucky lol.. I have Health First .. My bmi is 46.7 as mentioned up there .. Let's see fingers crossed ..
