    United Health care

    I'm new to this site...I have been overweight since middle school and have tried diet after diet...I can loose weight but the weight always comes back with extra poundage....I have severe sleep apnea, hypothyroidism, high blood pressure, insulin resistance, and knee problems......needless to say, I need to do something....I am a teacher in Georgia and have the United Health Care HRA plan....This plan will pay for the surgery if you meet the pre-op requirements: 6 month supervised diet with doctor, a psychological evaluation, attend a seminar by the surgeon, and 6 months attending support group. I have one support group meeting and one doctor visit under my belt....I will attend my seminar on Dec. 18 and I have my psychological evaluation on Dec. 20.....I have a wellness coach that helps/advises me about diet and exercise and I have a case manager....I'm excited, happy and hopeful!!!....If things go as planned, I hope to have the surgery in June.....United Health Care employees have been helpful and supportive....Now, it's my time to complete the requirements....
