ABOUT ME!!!!!!!
Nov 13, 2008
My name is Corrine, and I am a wife to my loving husband of 25yrs. And a mother to 2 beautiful children, Jen who is 21 and Chris who is 18. They are my life and the air in my life, I would be lost with out them both. My husband and I have finally settled down in Warrensburg after our Military career of 21yrs came to an end....finally...Im a military brat and don't know what its like to be in one place longer than 2 years. We have been in MO since the early 90's, I love it here.
What brings me to this place and time...is of course my weight. I have been heavy all my life, or as my parents would say....Pleasantly Plum! Anyway I have been on sooooo many diet that I couldn't begin to name them all. But Im sure that's true with some as well. Im very short only 5'1 and that make me look even plumper... I have never really asked for help on my weight issues, always figured that they were mine and my problem, Until 3 months ago I had just had enough and finally asked my PCM for something to shut off the constant feeling of needing to eat and to help me lose weight. She told me that she couldnt give me anything due to my anxiety meds and BP problem...great....but did tell me that she recomended the RNY. I never knew or even thought about my insurance paying for this. So the process started and with all the hoops jumped through, I made it to my first apointment at Dr. Hornbustels. Wow, what an awesome office he and his wife have set up. The staff is so nice and friendly and made you feel comfortable. So on Sept 4th we submitted to insurance and set up other appointments and I was ready to go....NOT! Within 12 hrs my insurance denied me!!! What???? Yea, they really never gave us a reason, so we resubmitted on Sept 9th with additional information and weight (of course I had gained...me stop eatting..yea right..) again within 12 hours the insurance sent into appeals and now they have 60 days to reveiw...(reveiw what???? that Im f** and weight too much!!) ok well so thats where were are now. I have 20 more days left and hopefully I can keep my sanity during the wait.
