I had to have 6 months medical supervised weight loss, psych evaluation, join their resources program, and bmi of 40 or more unless I have 2 or more comorbity. I have type 2, blood pressure and borderline sleep apnea. Hope they can get this done so I can get my time scheduled off and my husband since he works for the railroad in Utah

I'm trying to get a revision procedure so I was initially denied due to not having 5 years 40 bmi. But my case is I had a procedure in place 5 years ago which explains why I only have 3 years. I'm praying my surgeon can overturn UHC's denial thru the peer to peer next week. It's giving me so much anxiety and depression right now

Is your annual deductible waived if you use a Center of Excellence facility and surgeon?

      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!!
