Starting the Journey

Hello, I have posted only once on here and it was to see if anyone knew anything about Cigna Insurance. I have started the journey, I have finished my six month weight lose program with weight watchers and my Doctor. Only concern I have is my BMI was 34 when I started, but I was honestly trying to lose weight. It did not go down it when up even higher. Now I have type 2 diabetes along with RA, Fibromyalgia, sleep apnea, had two lower back surgeries and a big family history of heart problems. I had my consult with my surgeon yesterday, he thinks I should be able to get insurance to approve the surgery.(fingers crossed). I have my appt with the Therapist on Friday and the Nutritionist on Oct 5. Then everything will be submitted to the insurance. I sure hope it goes through cause this extra weight is getting a little much. Thanks for letting me share my journey.
