    So after going through some of these post I'm super nervous and confused as to how after meeting initial requirements and getting the clearances can your insurance still deny you.??? Just makes me nervous for when I have to submit paper work. I would hate to go through 6 months of this for nothing. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

    Wow congrats I'm very excited for this journey for sure...its just the thought that after I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off to get things done lol...but there's still no guarantee my insurance won't give me issues..but I'm prayerful thanks for the kind words.
