evelynvsg 136 Posted June 21, 2012 Good for you. Would you mind telling us what insurance you have? I have Oxford and I have 1 more month before I know. I have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and my claim was submitted last week. I am still in shock! My weight is 235 and my height is 5'4". I should also mention that I have high blood pressure so I'm sure that had a lot to do with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If no, did you have to submit any kind of proof that you had had unsuccessful dieting in the past? Hoping I won't have a difficult, lengthy process...
