Asking For Prayer And Positive Thoughts



Recommended Posts

I am increasingly stressed that I will not get my approval from insurance. I have done everything in my power so I feel completely out of control now as I wait for the decision. Every day that goes by I feel a little less hopeful. I just need to find some peace.

Hi,

Just know that as long as you have done everything in YOUR power to make this happen, then the only thing left to do is TRUST GOD to to what You Can't Do! This is a piece of cake if you've met your insurance criteria! Don't Worry!

All Will Be Well with You!

ill say a prayer for you as well. i felt the same as you. it took my insurance about a month to finally send my approval letter to my surgeon when i was originally told it would take 2 weeks. however keep this in mind, i called the insurance comapny directly a week and a half after the paperwork was officially submitted and was told it was approved. good luck to you!

Maybe some comfort in an old Quaker saying... one that helps me:

Way will open.

I will say a prayer for both of us! My paperwork was submitted to the insurance companythis morning (I called my insurance company to confirm it was received). The insurance comapny says 5 days for a response. I am on pins and needles. Good luck and hopefully you hear back soon. How long did you have for your insurance requirements? I had a six month waiting period. My last weigh in was yesterday.

Sending you lots of prayers and wishes of peace as you wait!! Waiting stinks, hoping for calm and contentment until you hear.

I understand, I'm scared too. It's still a little too early in my process for my surgeon to submit an authorization request, so the wait is killing me. I'm consoling myself with what their office told me: that my insurance company is one of the easier ones to obtain approval. I don't see why they would NOT authorize the surgery but of course my thoughts are running away with me. I hope your wait will be over soon. :)

The peace comes from allowing the powers that be take over. You'll be fine and your approval will come.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
