Question Extension?

Danette:

From my experience, it is usually possible to get an extension on a medical referral. It might also be possible with a medical approval. If you really want to give the MRC program a fighting chance, then try to get an extension of 90 days on your approval.

I have to agree with you--if you can lose the weight and keep it off any other way, I would go for it. I wish I could have lost the weight and maintained another way. However, I couldn't and my surgery was a God-send. Only you can decide what is best for you. Good luck with your journey, whatever way it is.
