Blogging is Stupid

But since I haven't posted forever I might as well.

I found out a couple weeks ago insurance denied my gastric bypass.  They called me and left a message, so I called them back and left 3 messages and never heard back from anyone,  so I called the bariatric center and they told me what was going on.  They were already in the process of appealing, so I typed up my 6 months of calorie counting and dropped it off for them to send in.
According to United Health Care, the surgery isn't medically necessary and I have failed to demonstrate a motivated attempt at weight loss.

GO.  FUCK.  YOURSELVES.

The level of hypocrisy is just off the mother fucking charts.  I call in to switch my COBRA over to an individual policy and right off the bat they ask me my height and weight.  Then they say I'm too fat for them to cover.  BUT, the surgery isn't medically necessary.  IF I'M THE EPITOME OF HEALTH THEN WHY NOT COVER ME???  Oh, right, being morbidly obese is a huge fucking problem but you're playing it down because I only have two months of COBRA coverage left.  Right?  RIGHT????

So now I'm waiting for the appeal and desperately trying to develop deadly mind powers so I can kill all of those who oppose me with a single thought.  I may need some nuclear waste.

Let's see...  anything else?  Not really.  I stopped taking my Ambien and have managed to get myself on a semi normal sleeping schedule.  I've been going to bed at 11-11:30 and getting up at 6 or 7.  I've been having trouble staying asleep throughout the night, but I've been avoiding naps, so that helps.  And I haven't been bingeing at night since I'm not taking the Ambien.
Oh yeah, I need a new chiropractor.  My Des Moines one moved to Colorado.  I'm scared to make an appointment with a new one because I figure they'll just tell me to slim down and my back will feel better.  I need to go though.  I can feel that catch in my lower back that keeps me from standing up straight.  I really enjoy embalming, but being on my feet for several hours kills my back and I usually can't move the next day.  Losing weight will help substantially, but I've always had a bad back and I always will.  TOO BAD TREATING MY OBESITY IS NOT MEDICALLY NECESSARY!!!!!!!!!!!  Dumb fucks.  Jesus Christ, I hope you all fucking die in a fire.  A fire that was started using dried feces.
