Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
Wow you both look great ! and not the size of you but your faces . I have always looked at the people who have lost the weight and have noticed one real important thing .... they look happier , and at peace with themselves.
All I can say is OH MY GOD!!!! How unbelieveable! I am still just finishing up the testing thats required and I have a long road ahead of me to get end results like you both have. Did you have problems with old friends that you haven't seen in a while recognising you? All I can say Perfesser is that you are Half the man you once was! Love your posts and the wisdom you share with us newbies... gotta love ya!

When I was 7 months out and close to goal, we went to Peanut's family reunion. We had just pulled up and gotten out of the truck when a young man came over, stuck out his hand and said "We haven't met. I'm Dan." I shook his hand and replied "Good to meet you Dan, I'm your Uncle Craig."
(Yes, it was entirely too much fun, but you're gonna hafta risk it!!)
