Super bummer. I knew all along that ins denial was a possibility (my BMI is 38), but I really, really thoght my comorbidities would be enough. GERD, hypoglycemia, hypopnea,high cholesterol, joint pain, shortness of breath, depression, plantar fascitis, sciatica, plenty of weight loss attempt efforts documented (meridia, xenical, nutrisystem, et al). And yet...nope.
I'm not completely giving up - I filed an appeal on Friday - but it's just SUCH a bummer. i've been SOOOOOOOO looking forward to this. I even had a date of 12/31. I feel like someone kicked me in my ample, fluffy belly. :cry
Any words of advice or encouragement? IWANNABEALAPBANDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Waah!
