Recommended Posts

So my long road just took a sharp curve in the right direction, I have had sooo much anxiety regarding this insurance that I about gave myself an ulcer. So to anyone with Priority Health ins in Michigan, I can give a thumbs up. It was less than a week for my approval. I will call today for my date prob aug sometime, I wanted to do July but have family coming to visit and don't want to be recovering.,( I am a "low BMIer, 40.4 to start and 40.7 at final weigh in, I am 5' 7 and about 262 no cormorbs)

This site has been wonderful, tons if info and support for me. I spoke to my surgeon about it, he said I was very "informed" and I said it was due to this site.

Anyway, I'm working my last day before vacation, so off I go, till next time....

Congrats on getting approved.

P.S. Please hold off on the throwing up till you're in the pre-op liquid diet - that way it will count towards your pre-op weight loss. :wacko:about-to-vomit.gif

Hi. I also have Priority Health and was wondering about the food logs. Did you fill those out and turn them in every monthly visit? My BMI is 43 and I have high blood pressure and sleep apnea. I am about 3 months into my 6 month dr. supervised diet requirement and have not lost anything or turned in any food journals. Just not sure what to expect from priority health when this 6 months is over with and I try to get approved for surgery. Thanks!

My Dr office took care of the logs, they required me to track what I ate on my fitness pal and print it out for a couple of the visits to see how I was doing. Otherwise the monthly visit would take care of that part, they would enter in my food and workouts, weight and BP. As long as your DR has it together you should be fine. Mine was an expert at dealing with prioritys ins requirements, I never missed an apt that is important and make sure they are around the same time each month. Let me know if these anything else I can help you with.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
