I started this process back on June 16, 2016. I was denied first in August of 2016 then again in December of 2016 after I tried to appeal by myself. After that I was getting frustrated so I decided to use Lindstrom obesity advocacy appeals. They sent out the appeal letter to OPM on March 9, 2017 and I was approved on March 17, 2017. I just wanted to say if your having a hard time do not give up hope! Also you might want to talk to them if you have been denied as well.
