Default I admire you folks

I so very much admire you guys who are on the journey of loosing weight by your own design. It is something I attempted time and time again but was never successful -- I tried Weight Watchers (a really good program actually), TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly), various diets, expercise programs (you should see my collection of exercise tapes -- I even have Jane Fonda -- see how long I've been battling this bludge).

I know IT IS POSSIBLE to reach a healthy weight without WLS, but it was something I personally could never accomplish. Unfortunately, my failure at TAKING CARE OF ME resulted in poor health, low self esteem, and much depression. Although I know WLS is not for everyone, I thank God that it was available to me.

Just want you to know I'm here in spiritual support of your weight loss endeavors and wish each and every one of you absolute success -- no matter which path you take to reach the end of the obese trail.

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.

Hi Bobbie and welcome! We are so glad you have joined with us on the journey, all of us take whatever way we need to get to our destination. I, like you ,did Weight Watchers, TOPS, exercise classes etc., all which were great. However, I was never able to keep off the weight. So for me WLS was a Godsend!! You'll find a wealth of information on this website, prayers, and all around great friends. WELCOME!!
