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 think everyone should get off her back about finally telling exactly what she did ! She from the start has always said that she got " medical intervention " just cuz she didnt say Gastric bypass didnt mean she was gonna tell. She was trying to hold out for an endorcement deal like Connie got if she was gonna be the whole world telling about the surgery she had done!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Ahhh ...I no she had her reasons and personally I dont think its anybodys buisness but her own . I also think that for people like us who have had the surgery or going to have the surgery ...understands why she likes to keep this to herself . I wouldnt worry about Star Jones too much though... shes fully aware that being a Hollywood Celebrety .. her life is put underneath a microscope. Im sure shes doing just fine ! Jerry

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I don't think it is anyones business if you opt to use GBS as a tool. I have not told many people and most likely will not unless I think it will help them in some way.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I cant quite figure out how you dont tell people - for me it's been such a dramatic change in behavior, clothing, hairstyle, and of course size that it's just obvious for me. Also, my DH has been so excited to see the changes I meet people that ask me about my surgery that I dont even know!!!!
