  1. I have the NPOS plan. hoping the 6 month program will get me approved. have no idea what humana is gonna do. plan is costing me 97.00 every two weeks
  2. I don't know your situations but agree with @KindaFamiliar. Don't give up hope. A couple of possible options I can think of......If possible change your insurance to one of the Market Place policies that cover the surgery.......this option, however may end up costing you as much as it would cost to go to Mexico to have the surgery.....So that's the second option I can think of, I've seen several folks who have their surgery in Mexico for around $5000...... When I first started hearing about folks going to Mexico for surgery by first thought was "no way!!!"......However, after doing a little research and watching some informational videos I think if it was not a covered service under my insurance that going to Mexico would be a serious consideration for me. Good luck to you no matter what you decide is your next step.....but don't give up! Thank you Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App

  6. Well I found out today that my insurance does not cover any version of the weight loss surgeries so I cannot afford to do the gastric sleeve like I so desperately want and I certainly won't be able to afford it anytime soon. Maybe if I win the lottery or if I start a go fund me account I can get close but oh well I guess I have to figure it out some other way Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App
  7. Thank you. I know the doctors say it's okay but I have yet to find many people , if any, whom actually had a baby after WLS. Wish I knew where to meet those people Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App
  8. I have no kids and I just turned 30 I have PCOS sleep apnea weight problems I'm 300 pounds I've been three hundred pounds for six years prior to that I lost a little bit of weight kept it off for a year-and-a-half had a size 18 215 pounds now I'm back to 300 for the last 6 years I really want to have kids my ovaries are not working properly and if I don't get this weight off I won't have kids. has anybody successfully had children after having weight loss surgery ??

I am about to be 30 in 2 days and my friend went through gastric sleeve and had really good success in the last 5 months she's lost 81 pounds from 300 she now 215 and back in a size 18 from 24 . She is 36 now when she did the sleeve and my mom was 46 when she had gastric bypass. I want to do the surgery but I'm scared about having lots of loose skin at my loan young age.. Does anybody have any knowledge they can provide? Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App
