i have been trying to have weight loss surgery for over several years, although i am a nurse my jobs never offered the type of medical that offered the type of insurance that would cover this type of surgery. So i was amazed to hear that caresource paid for the procedure once i became pregnant with my daughter i stopped working, because being a independant nurse i made to much for goverment assistant medical and my type of job offered zero medical at all which was scarey being a single mom at 40 with a baby and no insurance. To make a long story short i ended up with caresource and had my procedure july 24thof this year a month and two days out. Ive had zero complications,except i find myself tired alot,oh and had to be put on a large dose of vitamin D, for a while. I have lost 30lbs since surgery,and will start a serious or more focused workout regimen. im excited to see where i will be in even three months from now.Once your weight is no longer my reason for not living a full life of love and adventure without so many cautionary signs what will itbfeel like, i must admitt im a little nervous. But very grateful for this second chance.
