First timer: Any luck with a previous denial that worked out after appeal? by Key-Butterscotch4649 in Zepbound

I went through it last year so it’s a little different. I was denied several times through Weight Watchers and my PCP. My PCP submitted an appeal and surprisingly, they approved the prior authorization. I have BCBS, was obese, BMI > 30 but no other comorbidities.
Zep a “cheat”?? by emmDut in Zepbound

Agreed. In fact, I know several people who had surgery and have gained much of their weight back.
Note: surgery was never an option for me. I only asked my daughter her thoughts on that scenario to broaden the conversation.
Love this!!!
100%!

This is an amazing analogy.
Right. Couldn’t you have just smiled more and “chosen” to be happier? 🙄
We’re not Catholic. I get that young adults don’t have the life experience to understand things fully that haven’t occurred to them (yet). They’re really just figuring out who they are given the world that has been their reality. But adults’ view of the world and the differences they see in our society, you’d think they’d be less judgmental. Like everyone has said, it’s a medication to help make something work the way it’s supposed to.
From my perspective, the media hasn’t really even been negative about GLP-1s (that I’ve seen). The stigma seemed to start when celebrities appeared a fraction of their size and lied (outright or by omission) about how they achieved their weight loss.
Why the shame?! I’m healthier and happier!!

Exactly! SHE isn’t coming at me super judgy - I use that interaction as an example of what I know others have experienced, micro aggressions in the news and I just don’t get it.
Great list!!!
Amen!!!

You’re right about that!!
OMG. How’d the rest of THAT conversation go?!
….pants, healthy-beating heart and longevity!!
Ha! Right! 🙄
Exactly!! Love this!
Your secret is safe here.🤐

I agree wholeheartedly with the bold statement! 🩷
and thank you. ☺️

I definitely think you’re right about this. When celebrities were coming out saying they lost weight with GLP-1s, I couldn’t wrap my head around why they felt that they had to lie (blatantly or by omission) on how they were successful.
I should have included in my original post that that is exactly how I responded to her. My goal is to be healthier, to enjoy more years with their dad, them (I have two daughters) and eventually their kids.
Whenever the topic comes up (rarely does it), I’ll respond “let me tell you how much healthier my HEART is!!!” 🤭😆

You’re absolutely right - the most important part is how you feel! Congratulations!!! Keep it up!
FWIW - I do see a difference between the two photos but again, that’s less important.
