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.

This is a good discussion for couples to have every so often. The chances of having to do something about it are greater without the surgery than with, though. The health changes we have all experienced post-op are a reversal of negative trends and a literal renewal of our bodies, our spirits and our lives!! When I was hiking in the mountains of Utah this summer, I felt I was rising up on the wings of eagles!!

I'm sure she intends to - if lying on your back wide awake, with your mind racing 10,000 thoughts a minute and millions of "what-ifs" fluttering like a flock of demented moths counts as sleep!
