Default Thoughts & Prayers needed PLEASE....

Well, today I visited my surgeons office for weigh in & Thank God, I lost the required amount of weight to submit to insurance!!
YIPPEEEEE!!!!!!!!

To say the least I'm extremely happy that I proved the office WRONG that I shouldn't of had to been on this medifast for so... long *(8weeks pre-op!!) But still will continue until day before surgery.

But there's a feeling inside of me that has me worried to death that the insurance won't approve..
I know I've done all that I can that is in my hand & now it is left to the Almighty God, but please pray that I'll get this approved!!!!

LOL,

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I always said from day one that we were basically the same weight and you DID NOT need 8 crazy weeks of this. You have over a month to go still!!!! If you get approved, could they possibly move up your date (What about Esha's canceled date?).
But CONRGATULATIONS!!! I knew you could do it! And these guys do this all the time and they know what it needs to have for the ins. to say yes. It's easier said than done (I was a nervous wreck), but I know everything will work out and you will be approved!!!!!

Hang in there -- you'll get approved. Remember your own saying "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" Take it one step at a time!
