My surgery date has been rescheduled

Dec 18, 2008

This is the first time I'm writing anything on this site because my computer has crashed at home and am limited with time at work. So I take the time out now to write about my disappointment and frustration with the insurance company that I have ,but also had to reschedule my surgery until January 26,2009 and change the type of surgery I am now having. Although I trust that it is in Gods hands if I am supposed to be blessed with this gift than it will happen . I have not even received a go from the insurance company as of yet because they are saying that I may not be fat enough. Well what exactly do you call fat enough ? I'll tell you a little bit about myself . For as long as I can remember like at the age of 2yrs. old I loved food and it made me feel good and it took me away from anything that didn't quite seem right. I was one of those little kids that was very hyper-sensitive I felt everything. Food was my love and it is because of that I have struggled and suffered with a love affair with food my whole life. I've done many things to try and lose weight throughtout the years . So many desperate desperate attempts from having my jaws wired to hypnotism ,optifast, TOPS, W.W. Bohemian Diet,Atkins, I've been in tx. centers for food addiction 3 times for 90 days Overeaters Anonymous for 23yrs. in and out of relapse. I am a woman who has missed out on some very important things in my life I believe as a result of my low self estem  due to my obesity . Currently I have numerous physical problems related to my obesity that require surgery and weight loss and the insurance company is questioning wether or not I meet their criteria of being not fat enough. I weigh 198 lbs. at present  I stand 4'10 have a BMI of 41 I have sleep apnea ,need a right knee replacement and high blood pressure. So if and when somebody glances at this please keep me in your prayers and certainly feel free to respond.
