I have been overweight all my life. Even before my preteen weights. I realized after years of being unhappy
and then getting to a point where I see that I am going to die if I keep going down this path I decided
I wanted to have surgery. 4 years ago I attempted and as I was working towards it not only was I denied
but my company also dropped the option. Years passed where my primary kept asking for me to pay
for it even out of pocket. (Like I have an extra 50k sitting around) Fast forward thank god my company
gets sold and my insurance changes. I have the option to have it again!! Yeah!! I am not letting it
slip though my fingers again! I work my tail off going to every dr apt on the face of this earth and to
even my shock I was approved. I think I was even in denial until I got a call from my insurance
company the Friday before my surgery saying I was approved. I ended up breaking down in tears and
I have to say that the woman on that phone was beyond supportive. How many insurance companies
would tell you that whatever it takes we need to get that weight off you? Not many. So here I am
working towards my life change as I call it. I feel like I have been finally been given the chance on
life I should have had years ago. I regret all the things I missed and sat out on because of my
weight and refuse to sit on the sidelines anymore. I can do better.
I can't let my weight control me anymore....
