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.

(((((HUGS)))))
Edie, you know it's okay to vent, and venting will let others, especially those researchng the surgery that this is a tough way to go.
I am sorry a very very sweet young woman like you has to go through all this, and I respect and admire your courage in being a trouper through all this.
Hang in there, you are doing well, taking it one day at a time.
Incidentally, Kenyar also spent a few weeks before breaking the 200 mark and seeing the 100, she was venting quite a lot before that, so, you know you aren't alone there.
(((((HUGS)))) again.

oh sweetie! {{hugs to ya}}

I wish I'd mentioned this before !!! sorry for that hon!

in dealing with the strictures my weight loss slowed WAAAYYYY down. to the point the doc actually SAID in my checkup that I was NOT doing as expected!! What a bummer and discouraging thing that was to hear let me tell ya!

(interestingly though in the notes in the CHART that is NOT what it says but it's what he said in person! urgg) showed them didn't I in the long run?!! ha!

{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}

this too will pass and the wt loss will speed up when the strictures all get resolved. Promise! I too had a lot of serious thoughts about what the hell did I do? I'll be the ONE who can't lose, etc...why did I do this?! all those questions.

Now I look back and think "my goodness..how untrusting was I in the surgery working!" ...and how very emotional I was too...the strictures make ya get pretty dehydrated which is a cause of depression (a temporary depression thing) but it resolved a lot when I was able to get and keep things down.

---it'll all get better and VENT when ya need to!!!---

we love ya boots girl!

edie edie eide
i spent A MONTH stuck right over 200 and man was it torture. I watched some of the people in your surgery group lose right past me and it was so hard emotionally but i knew my time would come eventually. and it did. yours will too. its very easy for someone not in the situation to say "be patient and it will happen", or "i understand how you feel" but im telling you, ive been there and my weight bounces. im never really one real weight but for ONE WEEK out of the month. So i know the frustrations about the weight part.
all i can say is this. you've been thru so much with the absess and strictures and what not. I KNOW that once you're body gets out of the panic its in right now, it will let loose.
if you feel like you need to be mad, and vent go ahead. thats what we're here for.

i cant wait for 6 months form now, when you look back at your posts and laugh. i do that now with some of my old ones. you'll get there too.

weight looseing we all loose different.
HANG in there.

Lisa

I Ended Up Having The Dialation On Thursday Earlier Than Planned Because The Stricture Got So Bad He Told Me To Come In The Next Day. I Have An Other One Planned In 2 Wks. This Time They Also Gave Me Antibiotics So I Wouldnt Brake A Fever (just In Case). Sometimes He Said You Can Get It From Just Having The Dialation. I Was A Little Out Of It When He Explained It.

Thanks Everyone For Your Support!!! I Just Cant Understand Why My Body Is Hanging On To Its Wt Because It Has To Heal. Because I Always See People Who Are Very Ill And They End Up Losing So Much Wt From Being Sick. I Just Dont Understand Any Of This.

I Do Have To Admit This Morning I Do Notice Losing The Inches A Bit. I Tried On Some Clothes Last Night And Went From A 22,24 To An 18. Which Is Great!!!! But Like I Said B4 Im Still Behind In This Game! But Im A Trooper And I Listen To What Bree Said And Know There Is Hope After All Of These Problems Disappear.
