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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I was just saying the same thing. Why couldn't she be honest in the first place. I have choosen not to tell people in my family only because they are so negative things that doesn't concern them but once it's all said and done I am telling the world.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I cant believe alot of people still worry about , who knows they had WLS or not ...Who cares if people know ? Im having this surgery done because I want to live!!! My Doctor told me if I dont have this surgery , hes scared hes going to lose me !( Death , in other words ) Just show me where the OR is darlin because Im not leaving !! So needless to say if somebody knows Im going to have WLS ,so be it ,they know. If they dont agree or have a problem with it....I dont really care !!! Let Star Jones play her Hollywood games...Shes famous , shes making big money...do you really think she cares if you approve or not ?

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I don't tell people because of the negative things they have to say about it and what they their issues are with it. If you want to tell everyone that is fine with you but as for me they will know after it is all said and done. As far as Star Jones is concerned, if she had it done so be it and I understand her not wanting to say it before hand but to continue this lie for years is just crazy to me. I guess it did matter to her whether we approved or not due to kept it to herself all this time. It's not about how famous you are or how much money you have, it's about your health. Maybe her telling her story before could have help a lot of people with making the decision to have the surgery. I know for a fact I was on the fence about it for a very long time, mainly because I have heard so many negative stories about it and I did not know of anyone personally who had had the surgery.
