I am 31 Cw: 220. I have Hypertension and severe Osteoarthritis. I am curious if those are 2 comorbities considered by insurance. I constantly have heartburn including in the middle of the night. I am being sent for sleep apnea this week. I have a consult with the weightloss surgeon on Thursday. So nervous I am going to get denied.

I believe to drop ypu from his policy you have to have a qualifying event. He cant just drop you just because. I am an Ins Agent and you would need to look into a secondary ins.

Maybe, the plateau is your body maintaining the calories you give it. Uping the calorie burn might get you to your goal and possible more food if healthy choices. Im uncertain because i am just beginning this journey but thats my 2 cents. Great job on the weight lost so far.dont give up
