Best Phone Call Of My Life Today



Recommended Posts

So I got the best phone call of my life today.

After applying to ADP(a payroll company in bothell that I know for sure has UHC and covers the band, my mom use to wokr there) several times for months it seems they have finally called me. They did a phone interview and will be calling me back in two days to scheduel an actual interview...with ADP they have a recruiter from a different state call you then the center gets notified that they need to interview you.

After telling my best friend she was like "Gosh the hours and the pays sucks"

And all I could think was who the F cares when insurance covers my $17,000 surgery!!!

Wish me luck!

I pray that they will hire me I would give my right arm for this....probably the left one too!!!

Audrey - I'm so happy for you! See, your time has come!

Hang in there! Also, when you sign up for insurance, see if they offer the payflex spending account. This is a medical spending account you can pay your out of pocket expenses with. It is pre-tax and saves you money. I took out $4,000 on mine and it only lowered my check about $50.

Keep us posted on your progress!

That is great news Audrey!!!! Make sure to check and see if there are any criteria you need to meet before surgery (medically supervised diet, nutritionist, etc) so you can get the ball really rolling.

Luckily since my mom use to work at ADP she knows the person interviewing me so I have an idea of how I need to act which is a plus.

Thanks for al the crossed fingers out there!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
