mlecompte 20 Posted March 13, 2013 I just had my surgery yesterday and thankfully my insurance didn't require a lengthy pre-diet but I did have to pay 2150 to the hospital before they would register me. I had bout half of that and I got a personal loan to cover the rest. I likewise have not blasted it for all to know. A few close friends' date=' my boss who is like a friend and certain family members know. I'm sure I will get alot of questions once I start loosing weight and at that point I'll tell those who ask.[/quote'] What insurance did you have? I have no copay for the surgery but I'm afraid the hospital is going to drop a bomb like that on me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jilliemay 12 Posted March 13, 2013 Thanks newat52 & traycrow! Ill be praying for your surgery on thursday, tray & for everyone on here who's going thru this. Im still scared. I do pray & my faith is strong, but i still get the fear bug now & again. In the bible, God says "be not afraid" 365 times. He knew we 'd need to hear it repeatedly! . I know we'll all be fine. I will be so happy when I've got one week under my belt like newat52. Will try to post tomorrow after surgery....or maybe the next day. :-0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kids4olsen 7 Posted March 13, 2013 I started this journey the end of dec. Have all my test done and dr. surgeon sent me to was going to clear me for surgery except my thyroid levels are off so cant get cleared until that is fixed. I was hoping for beginning of April but at this rate I will be lucky if its May. please say some prayers we can get the thyroid fixed quickly.I have been hiding behind my fat for about 23 years and I am ready to stop hiding from what has been hurting me for so long. being sexually abused, and living a life where I was always told I was not good enough or everything was my fault. I have finally realized I deserve better and so does my family and I AM WORTH LIVING and being happy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
