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.

Tape A Before And After Picture On Your Bathroom Mirror So You Can Be Reminded How You Look Now And Maybe That Will Remind You How You Look.

ANyway your doing amazing..keep up the great work.

Congratulations on the great job.
Yes, it takes quite a while before your brains adjust to the new you. And, you are still a work in progress, so just do plug on, eventually, your brain will catch up, though from what CraigT has told me, it will take you a few years.

It definitely takes a long time. 5 years out and I only get glimpses of 'getting it' that I'm not huge and fat anymore. Even when I was at the smallest with little body fat I didn't get it. It was kind of like when you buy a new car and it's smarter, faster, cooler, everybody wants one! You know what I mean?

Ownership. That's what one of my medic guy friends told me. At the time he met me he told me I didn't have ownership of my body. To this day nearly 3 years later I'm still working on feeling ownership of my body.
