I was pretty certain this was going to be the case but was crossing my fingers that it was somehow going to cost less. I will meet the max out of pocket expenses with my vsg. I realize it is still less expensive than paying out of pocket, but it was a hit that I was hoping would be a lighter blow to finances. I've already paid co-pays so I realize the surgery won't actually be the full amount, but it is still that much out of our wallets after all is said and done (plus our premiums). 😖 I guess it's to get EVERYTHING done this year. 😜 #vsg #prevsg #insurancewoes #whyohwhycantitbefree

Feeling pretty optimistic about the future lately. It's a nice change.❤ Great changes taking place inside of me, eager for the outside to catch up. #prevsg #vsg #wls
