I have the same problem. I joined my scheme, and now they won't pay for my gastric banding to lose weight. They didn't ask I am fat. It's not my fault I'm addicted to cake. They also won't pay for my lasik for my eyes, I can't see properly even with glasses....how am I supposed to choose healthier foods if I can't see- everytime I buy something, thinking it's low GI- it tends to turn out to be cake. When I reach for an apple, I can't see the difference, and sometimes grab a cupcake. I've been paying premiums for almost one month now, and they don't want to help me out.

And every time I say the word 'DIET' I have to wash my mouth out with chocolate.
