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 | Good morning!!! Wow, how exciting (and nerve wracking) that you are so close to your surgery date! We all felt these pre-op jitters, just keep busy. I prepared meals and lots of meats during this phase in prep for my post op when I didnt want to deal with food! Put casserole's in the freezer for my family, etc. Of course, this will make the liquid diet thing rough, so...... I was just a "nester" wanted the house clean, etc and was so glad I did when I was post op. This is a super site and I have lived here for the better part of a year now ~ there's always some one on it seems and this is especially cool at 5 am when you're postop and needing info, etc. Just snuggle in and read - there are lots of posts with tons of info and feel free to ask any questions, we're glad to help!
