  9. I have to go to a meeting every week and it’s at our recreational center at least 10 meetings out of 12 and lose 5% of fat the first 12 weeks then another 12 weeks after that
  10. Really? I knew it was going to be 6 moths just didn’t know it was going to be with W W and I know people just go see the dietitian or nutritionist but I think it’s through W W too for my insurance. Yes I know you can make it to the end!
  11. Called the insurance today I have Meridian (Illinois Medicaid) said I have to go through weight watchers for 6 months first to get approved for surgery. I can still start the program at the Bariatric clinic just have to do my 6 months through weight watchers. Anyone else have to do this process too?
  12. Lol. Hmm not for sure I mean I’m pretty sure you already tried to explain it to him. Idk use flash cards ?
  13. I dont have to pay its free with my insurance I think that’s why I have to do the program because the insurance covers it
  14. Nope covered my insurance. Don’t have to pay for it
  15. Hi! ? awesome! Keep us updated my first consultation is the 25th!
  16. I just realized I was talking to two different people this app is confusing ???‍♀️ And I’m tired from all the information I got from this insurance. ?
  17. Wow! That is crazy. Wowoowowow that is awesome you get refunded! It will work out! Sometimes we have to pass those chances just figure out what is best for us at that time. I know everything will go well for you.
  18. ??? true. Really yeah I asked I said I have to do this first then do a program with the clinic said I can still start the process just have to do this weight watchers first.
  19. Yea this is a 2 12 week program is 6months. Have to meet every week at a weight watchers meeting and lose 5% and after 6 months you get approved through insurance but at the clinic so far I know they require a psych evaluation
  20. I know crazy. Well that’s good. I called my insurance today they require you to do a 6mntb program through weight watchers ? to get a approved for the surgery. I’m already getting tired from all this information I have to do.
  21. I know it’s all different for everyone but I finally found a pcp and will have an appointment with them next week
  22. I will! The crazy thing is we have to already get our pcp clearance done before our consultation and this will be first time going to see a doctor since I was probably in grade school
