Cool Finally at peace

As all of you of know I have been fighting with myself over this surgery. Today I went to my surgeon's office for my weight in. I didn't lose but I didn't gain. I gained 2lbs last week. They took away my lean and green I now am on strictly a liquid diet. I did talk to my surgeon's office about my fears and they said it was normal but the surgery is probably my best choice and I have to take off these last 10lbs before Oct.22nd which is my surgery date. I have been praying non stop for guidance and for some reason this morning I felt at "peace" with myself. It was like a calm soothing effect that has come over my body as if God was saying to me everything will be alright. So I am moving forward and having the surgery. Thanks to all who have listened to my ramblings for the past month or so

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.

Like everyone else said, I am so happy for you and you will not regret it, and you will have a brand new life ahead of you. The wows are really something wonderful. Things that you can not do now and once the weight starts to fall off and then you will notice the things you can do that you could not do before. Your health will improve tremendously and the energy is unbelievable, I am just so excited for you!!!!!!
