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.

I wouldnt worry too much about your rate, especially if you are comparing yourself to others that weighed a lot more than you. Your body is going to go at its own pace and it will catch up.

dont bother with comparing yourself to other people. there are lots of other variables that arent poste don here, height is a big part LOL. just sit back and focus on you. you'll get to where you want to be in your own time.

Your Welcome. A long time ago when I was trying to lose weight my dad brought that up to me when I told him I had only lost 20lbs. You only have to pick them all up at once to understand how much that really is. Its ALOT !

I had surgery the same day as you and I am down 17lbs. We are doing wonderful. Each persons body reacts differently. As long as we stay on track with the food and excerise we will be ok. Hang in there we are all on a journey.
