I got my insurance approval!!!!



Recommended Posts

The office called and left a message on my cell phone that said "Please call us regarding your insurance." Of course I was just SURE that it was going to be bad news or that they were going to tell me that I needed more tests or a letter of medical necessity (the ins. co. said i needed one and the Dr.s office said I didnt and submitted it with out the letter.) BUT to my surprise she said that my husband has wonderful insurance (glad she thinks so cause noone else seems to:)) and that I had approval and I would be receiving a letter in the next day or two. I was shocked, it only took 3 days for approval once it was finally submitted. So my official date is May 15th!!!! :clap2: I'm nervous and excited all at the same time!!

By the way, my insurance is Oxford Freedom Municipality in case you were wondering.

Congrats to ALL of you! I am still waiting for what I fully expect is the inevitalbe denial of my insurance request. However, that won't stop me because I am fully prepared to bite the proverbial bullet and self-pay (so what if I have to keep my car for another six years!). Every penny, nickel and dime will be money WELL SPENT, and Then SOME!

Losin'it (Cara): I was banded on April 17, 3 weeks ago this Tuedsday. The first week wasn't pleasant, but it was nothing to the tension of waiting for insurance coverage. One of the few times in my life I was nearly happy to tears was when I got that approval letter!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
