I'm going through the process right now I have to do a lot to have my insurance cover my surgery only part I am having a really tough time with is losing the 50 lbs I have 2 months left to lose it or I have to wait longer to get the surgery done but thinking it may help having friends that understand n know what I'm going through n know how it feels n I hope to be able up help anyone else too u can message me here or Facebook just search Danielle vandeventer it's a picture of my son u will see or text me at 320-515-1479 it don't matter to me just make sure if it's by text or Facebook let me know ur messaging from here

OK will do ty

I just want to explore all my option before just jumping into it

Do you know if they except south country health insurance

Message me if u have any ideas or advice for me

Yup that's what I'm doing now my br helps a lot

The doc gave me 6 to do it I wasted time was very busy for son he has cp n time ran out but I missed a few key appts so my 6 months started over so I have time again but can't screw up this time

Ya on some days I feel that way but on others I don't n I know that feeling will happen all the time it just sucks that's all cause I am trying to achieve something very hard to achieve in a short time

Thanks for the advise

What do u have scheduled ur surgery or an appt for the 24th n I live about 30 mins from St.cloud do u know Ogilvie by any chance n yup I'm on Facebook if u look up Danielle VanDeventer its a picture of my son

Ty that means a lot did u find me on Facebook I put my name n the picture is a pic of me son

My doc is July too not I'm July to LOL oops

I'm doc is July to I don't have a surgery date yet if u want to chat at all I'm here on this site and on Facebook if u search Danielle Vandeventer my photo is my son trying to befriend more ppl going through same stuff hope to her from ya I know u r busy since u r in after surgery stage wish u luck

Ya I didn't get to cancel the appointments I mixed my schedule up with my sons LOL he has cerebral palsy so he has appointments all the time too n I have to lose 50 n I have been so busy the last few months with a law suit against the hospital my son was born in they r the reason he has CP but now I have to lose 50 I'm 2 months n still see the psychology but I think they might extend my 6 months cause the appointments I did miss were the ones on to prove that I tried for 6 months to my insurance company I just wish I could sign something saying that if anything goes wrong that is cause cause I didnt lose all the 50 they r not reliable and I can get the surgery now I am soooooo ready I am known to have great patients but this wait is really testing that LOL

Has anyone missed a couple of appointments if so what happened when u tried to schedule them again n if anyone is going to unity hospital bariateic center n had that happen to ya it would be greatful to know what happened that's where I'm going with nurse Darla n Dr. July

Hey all new to thread I'm using my phone its good to see pol here getting/got there surgery done at unity I was wondering if anyone has or had to lose at least 50 lbs before they can get the surgery if so how r u doing it or done it I have 2 months left n I am having a hard time with that there isn't a lot of physical stuff I can do being 430 makes it hard any help would be forever greatful ty

I am using my phone to help me tho cause of some of the apps I van use to keep track

So ur saying meat tenderizer in warm water help make what u ate go through u faster?

It's cause of my insurgences n cause I weigh a 426 so for health reasons during surgery I have to

Ya I heard about the hcg thing thought about trying that out

They told me with how much I weigh now 50 is the amount I have to lose on order to be approved for the surgery so no I don't hit 50 I well have to wait even longer for surgery

I thought about a liquid diet with spiniage n carrats once a day n I have a cycler n I do sqwats n steps on my stairs

Well it was my fault I had 6 months but it didn't hit me that the countdown was so close n if I don't I don't get my surgery date n I have been so distracted with my sons apps I forgot about mine he has CP but I know its possible just a lot of hard work I am just trying to get as many tips n advice as possible cause this pretty much is a life or death thing for me
