I have been thinking about this for a while ( and trolling this site, quitely gaining information) and I started my process on august 3rd. I had my orientation on august 3rd, consult on august 10th, nutritionist on august 26th and psych evalulation on sept 3. My team thought that I needed a 6 month medically supervised diet but I told them I spoke with my insurance several times and they said no. So I had to really advocate for myself and make them submit to my insurance. Well she called me the same day and said that I was approved YAAAAAAAAAAY. Needless to say she said that she had never seen a insurance approve so fast. FYI my insurance is Humana. I am just really excited about this and nervous but grateful for the chance to make some MUCH NEEDED changes. This is something that I have being praying for and im so thankful to God.

So now im just waiting for them to call so I can schedule and get my date. Just wanted to share my story and wish everyone good luck no matter where you are in your journey. Blessing to all :)

I also got approved immediately. That was good news and bad news. The good news is no waiting. The bad news is no time for a food funeral! Congrats!!! :)
