New beginnings
Jan 11, 2009
I am going to get back on track and try have the surgery again. I have come to the conclusion that I cannot do it on my own. I have the ambition to go to the gym and eat right I just dont have the will power I guess......I dont have anyone or anything to push me to go or make eat correctly. I want to do it, I just can't get out of my usual routine. Time just keeps rolling by and it is just gets wasted. I could be losing weight right now and I could be happy, but instead I am not, and I am having foot problems. I have been walking with a limp for weeks now. I guess its time to see a doctor, so he/she can tell me its because of my weight, and that I need to go on a diet. Thats why I hate to even go to the doctor, because its always the same thing....my weight.....I just hope things run mre smoothly this time around with my insurance.........

I am not sure what to do now.....

Well, here I am. I am questioning whether I can lose weight on my own. I have mentioned it to some people and they believe I can, and so do I. I just need to try harder, before I jump into surgery. I guess I'll give it a go......

Declined by BCBS
Dec 14, 2008
I was declined insurance coverage by BCBS, they practically said that I wasn't medically healthy I suppose. I will raise the coverage on the insurance I have now and see where that goes.....
Still waiting.....

Still waiting! Going to change insurance to BCBS starting in January 2009!
Will be waiting

I am going to hold off doing the surgery for a couple months. There is a opean season for my primary insurance coming up. I am kinda happy though, I felt kinda rushed with the whole senario. I might just drop it and go with BCBS who knows. I am just hanging in there, in the mean time I will try to exercise more.
Thanks Everyone!

Today I was DENIED by United Health Care...... Looks like I won't be having the surgery this year.....I feel like nothing ever runs smooth for me, because "it" usually doesn't. I am not going to give up.
