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.

Nice job, Franny. You are doing very well!
I saw some pictures of myself taken last weekend. I have lost over 130 lbs. What I saw in the pictures were now what I wanted to see. I looked a lot fatter then I feel. I made me depressed becuse I think about how fat I was and how I must have looked and how fat I still am. My head is in a strange place right now and I had my 1st surgeversary 2 weeks ago. It's funny what your head can do.

HEY FRANNY!
hugs on doing so great! and may things continue to go smooth for you.
IT is very normal to look in the mirror and not see your weight loss...
unfortunately it takes a long time for the head to catch up to this rapid
weight loss your undergoing. I know for me the best way i would see the results were side by side photo comparison and the trying on clothes at stores to see the smaller sizes!
KEEP up the great work!
and moveing up the foods rungs is great but this is a challenging phase. THINGS one day will be fine other days wont and thats very normal!
Were here for any q's that pop up as you start on regular foods
