Wow someone who can relate... Yeah I have just swallowed those moments Hard! I know that this is the best thing for me and my Health... My Mom just told me " You better have this done before you have no options due to the med. reform crisis. I heard on the news that there are rumors The Obese might be taxed one day. Scary huh!! Like its not expensive enough to shop at Lane Bryant and be considered a Pre exsisting condition before you can sign up for health ins. But in some parts of the country you can have a sex change... Unbelievable... Sorry just venting a lil:cursing:

Hello my name is Tanya and I was wondering if we could be friends... I am interviewing w/ JPMC and I am hoping to get on a good insurance plan and eventually have my surgery. I think it would be nice if I could have someone to relate with every now and then. Maybe hear about your journey. Thanks for the consideration

I actually had my 1st phone interview with Citibank and I am awaiting my 2nd face to face soon... I was wondering if you were still with citi and were you covered through the insurance they provided? Maybe you could shed some light on your experience with approval. But I am also interviewing with JPMC tomorrow apparently for Collections(eww) but I am in need of a job and I want insurance. Also when did your benefits start at JPMC?
Thanx Hun

Thank you

Ok I just lost my job an dmy insurance. Believe it when I say I was the breadwinner. My husband doesnt make much I really was hoping I could get on medicaid. I was told by the txdhs fella that Texas doesnt have medicaid for adults under like 55. How can I get around this? I had bcbs in 08 and in 09 they decided not to cover it. I am just lost ... I went to NIX w/ carcamo when I had the ins and I sat with this woman who said she got approved through medicaid she had like 5 kids maybe thats why huh. I dont know... thanx hun

:cursing:I too was diagnosed very young..16 to be exact I was 9yrs old when I started my cycle and was one of those really busty 12 yr olds. After age 16 my cycles were like 3 times a year. I was given Xenical and bc for my cycle and weight. I dropped like 30 lbs and was soo happy. This is a very expensive and uncomfortable $120 a bottle. I joined softball and worked out hard. Then after graduation I got pregnant!! I was soo not ready but I steped up. She is the best thing that ever happened to me. Halie is now 7 and is soo precious to me. I married her father(HS sweethearts). After 2 yrs of breast feeding I gained 80 lbs...SNAP just like that! No bc for 6 years bcuz I was hoping to get pregnant again, I was afraid that the bc would really screw me up. In 08 my gyno gave me metformin and My cycles are back. I have still not commited to bc. Although I will start taking them before I have the band. I have been at 222lbs for 3 yrs no more no less! Metformin is great but I still have hair issue... Help!! I can't wait to be normal one day. I feel like this is such a disfiguring condition. I feel like I robbed my husband!! My body was slammin!! Now I work out and just bulk up. I feel so manly. The band, I feel is the only way to really get the PCOS under control. OH GET THIS!! I went for my sono and the tech was like, too bad you cant have babies cause of your cystic ovaries... I was like b*tch don't diagnose me your a tech!(in my mind) The nerve!!.. she felt pitty for me yet she condemed me to feel worthless and hopeless!!

I see that you were banded in the end of 08 and I was wondering if you had lost the 1st 50lbs (Before) your 1st fill in Mid 09?
