I'm having problems with my insurance...they said it might be a month before I have approval. I am going to pester them daily though and get my paperwork approved quicker hopefully. Wish me luck. If things don't go well I might be a December bander...or I might not be able to get banded at all. SO pleaseeeeee PRAY for me to be a Notorious November with ya'll. -hug-

Plain you crack me up. :eek:

I've been lazy lately no exercise today either haven't been in the mood. I'll try to get my ass in gear tomorrow.

Thanks hun. I need all the prayers I can get right now my insurance is buttholes. :eek:

it stops at 350

Plain is a good person and a good moderator. -edit- cause yeah the job was already done :eek:

wow wow wow...

Thanks :eek: I sure hope all goes well.

Ugh I just hope things work out. I am majorally stressed out now. I was excited...but yeah thanks insurance.

So got ahold of the insurance today they have my paperwork and said they were sending it to review today. But then they said it would take a month for it to be reviewed and approved. My surgery is supposed to be next month. I hope they just say that and then it gets approved quicker. :sad_smile: -worried-

So my paperwork is being faxed to Diversified Group Administrators today. I was told it could take 1 to 2 weeks to get approved. I called today to see if they had it yet and they said not yet. So we will see. Does anyone here have this insurance and had luck with it? I am praying I get approved. I have several comorbids and I started at a weight of 419. Down to 392.5 on the 6 month diet they required. I hope it goes through quickly.

Mmmm crystal light.

How many of you guys were told it would take a month to get approval for your surgery and you got it before then? Also how long was it actually...?

You can still keep one

Mmmmm I haven't had icecream for a long time...and the last time I had cake was my birthday back in august.

once the paperwork is with the review who do you call and talk to i mean what do you say once you have someone on the phone I knew what to do to see if the paperwork WAS THERE but yeah lol

Thanks I sure HOPE so

if they end up being like dad are you going to keep one?

I got ahold of the insurance they have my paperwork in hand and are sending it to be reviewed. Thing is they told me it would take a month. =/ My surgery is supposed to be next month...if it takes a month I guess I'm screwed? -.-

the 2nd puppy in that 2nd picture looks brownish red

Do you guys think it will take a month?

I have a very important question... Have any of you been told by your insurance that it would take a month or longer for the review board to look at it and decide if you can have surgery or not and it took a lot less time. About 30 minutes ago I got off the phone with the insurance. They received my paperwork and told me it's going to the review board now...but that it would take at the LEAST a month before it will be approved or not. I told them my surgery is supposed to be in November and I don't have insurance at the end of the year anymore....and they said sorry it will take a month... Has anyone ever had that happen and it took less time? I am going insane. My doc's office told me not to call them about insurance until October 20th. So I am supposed to go insane and cry everyday not knowing what's going on? My doc's office told me it would take 2 weeks. But thing is they never had anyone go through their program with my insurance...so how would they know they said they based it on everyone elses. I have a huge feeling in my gut that I went through all of this shit for nothing. I am very depressed right now.

I think we're always going to feel fat...I know I will probably always think I am because I have been big my whole life and I think most of us have too. Our bodies may be shrinking and looking better but I think it takes longer for our mindset to think hey I am actually healthy now not huge. Dunno lol

my feet get sweaty if I wear socks to bed. :| I just wrap my blanket around them lol

I had birthday cake on my birthday the day before a weigh in and still lost. It's not your enemy as long as it's in moderation.
