THEY SAID WELL DOC WONT BE IN TILL FRI TO SIGN OFF ON YOUR TEST AND THEN WE WILL SEND IT TO YOUR SURGEONS OFFICE. I WAS SO UPSET I HAD TO WAIT EVEN LONGER AND FIGURING THE HOLIDAY COMING UP PROBABLY EVEN LONGER. THEN I GET A PHONE CALL ABOUT 5 MINUTES AGO AND THE GIRL AT THE SURGEONS OFFICE TELLS ME IM APPROVED. IM LIKE WHAT?!?!?!? BOY EVERYONE HAS TOLD ME HOW GOOD SHE IS AND THEY WERENT FOOLING!

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.

Boots,

I'm very happy for you and I know exactly what you mean! but you know your picture in the avatar you don't look over weight and in fact 240lbs is not sooooo bad! I fully respect your wish and I'm sure with this surgery you'll have the figure that you always dreamed of!

So, have you been over weight you entire life?! or did you gain it after giving birth!

You know I have been over weight (the right word is obese) my entire life I was 240lbs when i was 13 yrs old!!!!!! do you know that I'm the thinnest now in my whole adulthood time!
SOmetimes when I walk infront of the stores glass and see my reflection I ask myself Ohh Gosh is this tiny woman me?!!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes when I look at my old pictures and the transformation I made I burst into tears!! why the hell I waited that long and lived so sad all these long years?!
I could have been happier many years ago!

I'm very happy for you I know how desperate we are to become healthy moms and the splish splash thing is soooooooooooo cute idea I wanna do it this years summer vacation with my kids in Malayzia

Will post picture that's for sure hehehehe

Gotta go put the kids in their bed
talk to you soon
you take good care of yourself, thank God you're a potential loser hehehe

Hanadi

Well First Of All 230 Lbs Is Pretty Bad When Your Only 4"11 Tall. I Need To Update That Pic In My Aviator. I Put That On Last Yr When I Was Just Thinking About This Surgery After I Had My Daughter. ONE YEAR LATER I HAVE COME BACK TO THIS FORUM AND HAVE DECIDED TO GO AHEAD WITH THE SURGERY.

I Have Gained 30lbs Since Then And Im Now 230. As A Child I Wasnt Overweight Till I Hit My Highschool Years I Started To Become Chubby. Then In My 20's I Dieted Alot So I Was Constantly Going Up And Down From One Extreme To The Other. Then About 7 Years Ago I Had A Very Very Bad RelationShip With My Ex-boyfriend And After That I Had Started To Gain Alot Of Weight. Its Funny When Found Out I Was Pregnant I Was 220 Then When I Gave Birth To Her I Was 190. Yeah I Lost Weight Being Pregnant. Go Figure!!! Lol Since I Gained All This Weight I Have Diabetes, High Cholestoral, Joint Aches And Alot Of Problems With The Heels Of My Foot. But I Know This Will All Disappear After I Lose Weight.
