PS Update, ok the wait begins...

ok, so I got a call from Karen at Plastic & Hand.   My insurance company says I meet all the qualifications but one.  I need to have documention of 1 year of maintaining my weight per Harvard Pilgrim. Most require 6 months and she was surprised as well.  So back to my doctor for monthly weigh-ins.  Well, I guess this is telling me I am not quite ready. 

She states thought, it is a good sign that the other qualifications have been met for medical necessity.  So that is good news.

well, good thing you started journaling again.  how long have you got left?   your time will come.  hope it dont interfere with your Mexico trip

journaling.. I did good yesterday!  I haven't written down anything today     Nope, it won't interfere with Mexico.  I am on the list for the August Trip (I found out yesterday)  I will post more on that later. 

minor set back. this gives you more time to research and prepare yourself. hang in there. no pun intended LOL

Thanks Lisa!  Well, now you know what you may have to deal with. Call your insurance company.

Sorry to hear that Kathi but everything happens for a reason.. keep your chin up you only have one to complete the rest done,, but i know still dont make it easy.. you must have the dates u weighed over the last year that dont count.

I do have weights for the last year. But I lost 33 lbs over that.  They want a maintained weight.  No losing and no gaining.  I hope there is a 5 lb leeway there! I better call and find out, huh?

At least you know that you will qualify once you have the waiting part done!  That's a step in the right direction!  Keep your chin up!  Time's gonna fly!
Hugs!
Ruth

Thanks for making me feel better!  

Kathy, you know I wont' be leaving for quite some time, so we can do this together.  and kick each other's butt.  so, ok, you skipped jrnling today, but tomorrow is a new day.  I had a good day today, but **** just took out some almonds.  almost bedtime,so that is good
