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.

PITPITTSBURGH -- Gastric bypass surgery has become a popular way to lose weight, but the success rate for losing the weight and keeping it off is only about 10 percent


THIS is very scary only 10 percent of us will keep this weight off ....
not a good number...oh man!

EVERY pound counts and you should be excited!

I have to say being 1 month shy of 2 years out
i get scared at times and wish i had the appetitie
and lack of wanting to eat as i did the first year.
WISH i had that for life!
I worry
