First and foremost, I have to say thanks to my BESTSSSS Friend, NICOLE JOHNSON. She is also a "loser" and has a site on OH. Nicole, I don't know what I would do if you were here calling me every, single day giving me my daily countdown til surgery. I'm looking forward to getting down to your clothes size. You are my rock and my friend til the end.
Now, I'd like to say thank you to the little people, that have supported me through this weight challenge. Momma Wilson, you know you're my girl, thanks for all of your help that you have given me and will continue to give me after the surgery. I only hope that I will be able to show my deepest love and appreciation in my "after-life."
Tricia, My life would be nothing without the love from my OLDER sister. You have been therefor me since I was able to stand up for myself. You the trouble you always got me into. I"m happy that you and Russell have found love again within each other. Life is good, now it can only get better and sweeter for you two.
Chris, In case you didn't know, I admire you for your strength, love, dedication, and perserverence. Vanessa couldn't have picked a better man.

I'm Approved!!!! United Healthcare IS the best there is. I went in for my initial visit February 27, 2007. I had my information sent to Dr. Capehart from Dr. Ihde after Ihde wanted an astronomical amount for his pockets. This morning, Linda called me and said that I was APPROVED! It felt great to hear those words and know that I didn't have to up thousands of dollars for the surgeon's comfort, just my deductible. Dr. Capehart, you ARE the best!!
I had my consultation with Dr. Ihde. His staff is very nice and his program was very thorough. However he's asking me for thousands upfront before the surgery. My deductible is only $500.00, so why the increase? My guess is to help line out his pockets.
***March 7,2003: His staff is very nice and attentive. I thought that Dr. Alexander was very thorough and straight to the point. I especially like the way his history of no fatalities sounded. My first appt. was Thursday March 6, 2003. I just started my insurance battle. I hope it goes through. My impression did not change much. Since reviewing his file from this website I felt like I made a good decision on my surgeon. I hope that in a few good weeks I'll become a loser!
****August 11, 2003: I now have a new surgical prospect. I found out that Dr. Alexander is not in network for my insurance with Aetna which has also changed to a new plan. My meeting is scheduled for August 22, 2003. I hope all is well.;-)
