Smile First step done!

I went to my seminar tonight. It just reinforced my decision to have this surgery. My surgeon presented and that was nice. I have to do 6 months weight loss so my surgery won't be until late this year. Oh well, maybe I can lose some weight before surgery too. Plus, it will be a great opportunity to start my lifestyle changes. I have done some. I am staying at 1200cal or below and I exercise for about 45 minutes 4-5 days a week. So....next step, here I come!!

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.

Im glad you went to the seminar. If they have support groups make sure you attend those to before during and after this. They can be a lifesaver.
