Getting the insurance company to say yes! HI, You can have your doctors send letters to your insurance company. They will know what they need to say.

You also can write a letter to your insurance company. Do you have diabetes because of your weight? , All the reasons your weight is hurting you.

Sit down and write a letter and send this to them. If they say no, do it again. The best bet will be when your doctors send the letter.

Hang in there. You can get the insurance to agree. It just does take time.

I would also read as much as you can about each surgery. Decide what you think would be best for you! Each person is different.

I would love to hear how you make out. I had bariatric surgery a few years ago. I am glad I did it.

I would do it again. Good luck to you! :) Sources: personal experience baitlady1398's Recommendations Recipes for Life After Weight-Loss Surgery: Delicious Dishes for Nourishing the New You (Healthy Living Cookbooks) Amazon List Price: $19.95 Used from: $19.953 Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5 (based on 24 reviews) Weight Loss Surgery For Dummies Amazon List Price: $29.953 Used from: $9.953 Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (based on 51 reviews) The Emotional First Aid Kit: A Practical Guide to Life After Bariatric Surgery Amazon List Price: $29.953 Used from: $19.953 Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5 (based on 12 reviews) The Success Habits of Weight-Loss Surgery Patients Amazon List Price: $29.953 Used from: $29.953 Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (based on 11 reviews) A Complete Guide to Obesity Surgery: Everything You Need to Know About Weight Loss Surgery and How to Succeed Amazon List Price: $29.953 Used from: $9.953 Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5 (based on 14 reviews) The Patient's Guide to Weight Loss Surgery: Everything You Need To Know About Gastric Bypass and Bariatric Surgery Amazon List Price: $19.953 Used from: $9.953 Average Customer Rating: 3.5 out of 5 (based on 19 reviews) Obesity Surgery: Stories Of Altered Lives Amazon List Price: $19.953 Used from: $11.37 Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (based on 1 reviews) There are some good books here.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
