|  Good and bad news... I went for my first visit with my PCP for my 6 month supervised weight loss. I have a new dr because I didn't like my old one. Good news--I only weigh 333 instead of 350 (I guessed earlier). Bad news--- I weigh 333!! LOL. My dr isn't super supportive of my decision. He thinks that I will lose enough weight in 6 months that I won't want to do the surgery. Like I haven't lost weight in the past (only to gain it plus 20 pounds back!) He has lost 120 lbs with diet and exercise so he thinks everyone can!! He decided to check my Hg A1C to make sure that I am not diabetic (don't think I am). So...I am on my way!! |

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 | It's hard when your doc isn't supportive, but at least he's not unwilling to help you along with this. And now at least you know where you're really starting from and it's LESS than you thought!!!
