  8. I live in kent. But what I did was have my Dr send my referral in to the Insurance company. Which is the apple care once he did that I called them after a few days to see if they got my referral also I learned from the insurance company that you primary care Dr doesn't have to be the one to send in your referral. You can have any other Dr related to your health care like if you go to physical therapy they can send it in. But as the end of the day if you want your Dr. To do it just explain to him y you need it or see a different Dr. My pca is in federal way he sent in the referral after I spoke to him about why I did the surgery.. If you want to DM me I can give you his number. He's located by the st Francis hospital.

  13. I would see what their appeal process is and make they the info from you Dr of why you need the surgery. Its pretty much what I had to do.

  26. I will say I honestly miss being in the background and not being the center of attention. I was ok with ppl telling how pretty I was and leaving it at that. But now everywhere I go I have men trying to talk to me. The thing is I just Dont know how to respond and it makes me uncomfortable. Plus I have anxiety so sometimes certain. Social situations trigger my anxiety. It makes me not want to leave the house just I did when I was bigger..I'm sure I will get use to it over time but right now its too much for me. I literally have men following me around in stores trying to get me to exchange numbers with them and I'm use to it unless it was a guy that likes bbw. I miss being invisible. But I wouldn't change my choice for wanting wls.
  27. I haven't even had my surgery yet and my boobs are already getting really small. I went from a dd down to a 34/36 c but I think that's only bcuz I'm not small yet. So I feel u on the boob part.
  28. They have actually started doing like 10 yrs later or up to 10 yrs and most of the ppl have gained most of their weight back smh or even more weight. Its so addicted to watch.
  29. Do any of you ever watch my 600 lb life? The show makes everything we r going through look so much more real. And easier to understand.
  30. Wow I can really relate to how ur feeling. Its like u took the words right out of my mind. Im not sure how to feel now that ppl r starting to notice me. I'm scared outta my mind for the changes to come. Thank you for sharing this.
  31. 2017 is going to be great for all of us. I can't wait to find out my date either but I'm soooo scared.
  32. I have about 7 days till my final appointment. I will finally find out when I can get my wls. I am starting to feel nervous. At first I was just ready to start my journey.. Now I will admit I'm scared outta my mind. I've never spend the night in the hospital. But at the same time I'm super excited. I have anxiety which has been pretty well managed but lately it's been at an all time high. Its been hard for me to fall asleep at night. I'm sure it will be late nights like this till its over with. What are some things you all have done to keep calm?
