Hi everyone, My name is Dayte and I just joined this group. I am almost 16 mons

post op. I'm feeling great and hope all of you that are post op are also and

also good luck to the ones that are about to have the surgery. It's the best

thing I could of ever did for myself. I was a size 24 and now a size 10. If any

one has any Q's feel free to e-mail me. Take care all and good luck.

Sincerely, Dayte

hello everyone, my name is Krys, 23 from CA. I hope to have the surgery ASAP!

I have my consultation appointments this Friday. unfortunately my insurance

carrier (Kaiser) thinks I don't qualify. I do w/ my BMI but I don't have any

co-morbidies. so I'm paying out of pocket. I'm very excited and can't wait. I

know the group is very active and so I hope I can keep up! I will do my best.

thanks for letting me join.

That's my max. After that I can't quite see what everyone's fussing about. " -

Re: newbie!

Even though they say you don't qualify, try sending

them an appeal letter. That's all some insurance

companies want. Make sure to include things that run

in your family-just because you don't have these

problems now doesn't mean you won't get them later. I

didn't really have any co-morbs, but diabetes, heart

disease runs in my family. You can also document such

things as joint pain (they can't really check that)

and other such stuff. Good luck,
