7 tattoos and 14 piercings here 1) "tramp stamp" tribal design on my lower back 2) yin yang with tribal between my shoulder blades 3) gemini symbol on my right ankle 4) leopard gecko on my left calv 5) celtic band on my left ankle 6) celtic knot on my right hand 7) japanese kanji "beautiful disaster" on my left forearm

i've been going through this with cigna... for OVER A YEAR!!! my pcp to start didn't agree with my choice in WLS so she in my eyes, purposely omitted information so that i wouldn't get approved. i then moved on to another doctor who said that she supported my decision, but was still skeptical because she lost a patient to gastric bypass. i did my 6 months with her just to find out that there was basically nothing in my chart about my weight loss attempts. i have an appointment next week with my husband's pcp and we're going to try to get a handle on things.. i guess another 6 months won't kill me, right?!?

I actually live in Holly... home of the Michigan Renissance (sp?) Festival... I'm actually looking forward to going this year. I want to get dressed up, but I definitely want to wait before I spend all of that money on something that won't fit next year Nice to "meet" you both :confused:

I live near Flint... I'd much rather be anywhere else though

HI Everyone I'm Mia... 25... and I'm hopefully going to be banded soon. I've already had my inital consultation with the surgeon, had my psych eval... I go for my surgical clearance appointment next week and hopefully I'll be getting into Rotation soon! As long as my insurance company doesn't throw any curveballs, I should hopefully be on the losers bench very shortly. I look forward to chatting with you all
