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.

Did you see poor Marc's liver? I wondered if they would go ahead and do the surgery after seeing it but it seems they really had no choice. I hope that all will go well with him.

It was also nice so see an alternative to lap RNY done this evening. It is good to know about all the procedures.

now that i am getting into the groove of these shows, I kind of wish they would show some "afters" within the same program on Big Medicine. i feel like we watch the struggle to get approved and all, why not see the end result as well? I think next week marc has some life threatening problems (they showed this in the preview) I cant wait to watch next week.

as for brookhaven, i dont get how this program functions the way it does. i think therapy, exercise, and nutrition should be mandatory. this shouldnt be summer camp!

...more later

That poor man, to get up to 1000 lb, lose it, and then regain half. Richard Simmons shamed him instead of encouraging him. And like his wife could stop him from eating - when the clinic can't even stop them from cheating!

I commented to my husband that the Brookhaven show just reinforces my belief that obese people CANNOT lose the weight and keep it off, and that WLS is truely the only hope to keep the weight off. At least the Brookhaven show didn't dis WLS this week.
