Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  I Got Approved!!!!!!!!!! Sorry that i haven't been on in a while, but my life has been crazy!!!  I got my letter of APPROVAL today. So, I e-mailed the DOC.  It is really strange though, because now I am sooo NERVOUS!!!! I am asking myself if I am making the right choice? Is it nerves? How many days will I be in the hospital away from my kids? Will I BE OKAY? Thanks for reading, and please any input will be wonderful!!

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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Thats wonderful news!!!! YAY!!! Nerves are sooo normal. I actually thought I was abnormal as I wasnt very nervous at all! But I went in very very prepared, and that was mainly thanks to this place. I did have the jitters when it was time to get on the bed and go in, but the staff were awesome, and got me talking about my son and the next thing I knew I was waking up! You'll be fine. Just read lots and lots. *HUGS*
