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.

Definitely buy new clothes to show yourself off.
A good outfit that makes you look good will make you feel good.
Remember, you worked hard to be able to shop in the regular size section, where you have infinite choices.
My personal preference here, but I think it better to be dressed neatly and conservatively in a good looking suit or jacket/shirt/pants than being dressed sloppily which seems to be today's high fashion style.
If you dress sloppy, you will feel sloppy, if you dress sharp, you will feel sharp.

Yeah... I'm with Doc...
Buy new duds. You don't get the chance to show off to often and have people really appreciate all your hard work!
