Ins. said I can't make lifestyle change HELP

My surgeon's office called today and said that the ins. company will not cover me because they feel I will not make the necessary lifestyle changes.How can they say that? I called my husband crying. He said, "ok it is time to check out the mexico thing." BOOOO HOOO I hate insurance. I need encouragement. Kim M>

I know all too well how much they stink! Mexico is a good choice! I had Dr. Rumbaut 10 months ago and am only 14 pounds from goal! It was worth every penny to get a new life! Check him out, www.gastricband.com. I had laproscopic RNY, but he does bands too, he actually has one himself! Anothe doc that comes highly recommended on this site is Dr. Aguierre. He does open RNY. Good luck! Bonnie lap rny 6/3/05 264/163/149

Insurance is very frustrating. As to the Mexico thing - it worked well for a bunch of us. I'm happy I did it this way. Lap RNY with Dr. Rumbaut. Down 110 pounds in 8 months. -Pam 320/210/150
