Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

In the end, excellent quality in small bits is so much less expensive than inexpensive quantity in large bits, while so much more satisfying. Very cost efficient!
Takes a while to get the hang of it, though.

Yep I must agree with both of you. I went into the cafe here at work the other day and the lady tried to give me the biggest piece of pizza on the pan. It was nice when I was able to say to her, could I please have that smaller one! Made me feel wonderful.

You all are great! Bring up so many points for us to think about!

All said is so true and so far ingrained that it is almost a natural as breathing. Doc, I'm still working on the "getting the hang of it" part. The brain sometimes supercedes the new pouch because the operator slips into old holding patterns. Keeping vigil is key.
I love reading everyones posts!
