  15. I'm slow when it comes to translating stuff like bbw's and lbw's supper clueless what that is

     

    but i do know what sexy is

    and i think you already have sexy back watch out Justin this boy is going to give you a run for your money =)

  16. really ? how do you get your fills ? did you pay out of pocket ?

  17. thank you your to sweet .. well news is i just got denied yesterday . but my surgeons office will be appealing it

  18. i have not been banded yet . just found out yesterday that i was denied . bummer . were going to appeal it though so I'm still somewhat hopefully . but not truly all the way as once before

  19. HI , thank you for your words of encouragement . you know its crazy because the people from the surgeons office told me that if i did lose 20lbs that i would no longer fit criteria to get banded i would be under 40BMI and i don't have any existing conditions like diabetes ex. ughh this is such an oxymoron lol.. but congrats on your date i bet your supper excited !!! so how much do you weigh and how much did they make you gain ?

    denied =(

    Just found out i was denied =( . thought it was pretty crappy . i was told that although i did meet requirements for the surgery . i did not lose 20 lbs or 10% of my weight so there for i was denied . i called my surgeons office and they told me that they will be appealing it as soon as they get the paperwork . on my consolation the surgeon told me that i did not have to lose weight but that i could not gain not even one pound and if i did he would cancel the surgery . so the guy that i talked to at the surgeons office told me that it should be oKay and that during the appeal they will state that the surgeon did not feel it medically necessary to lose before surgery. although i did lose weight during the 6 months but not the full 20 .. I'm just angry that i did everything the 6 month reg. asked for . and nowhere in the paperwork did it ever state that i needed to lose 10% of my weight . trust me if it did i would not have bothered sending anything in until i did .i feel like i have waisted so much time and money for nothing . but i guess till i get back from the appeal i will keep my head high . well for the most part it still is disappointing anyone have ideas on what i can do or has anyone been in this situation ?
  21. HI , i was reading one of your old blogs . today i found out that i was denied after doing the 6 month reg . I'm so confused . the reason they gave me is that i did not lose 20lbs but my surgeon told me that i did not have to lose just not gain . and follow the 6 month reg orders . and i did . i did everything i did lose weight just not 20lbs .

    Advice on 6 month diet

    since your currently unemployed you should apply for Medicaid . then go to your primary physician and they can direct you in the right direction.
  23. welcome . and the approval turned into a denial today =( next step is the appeal:frown:
