Default Oh Boy!!!

Ok so I am starting my bowel prep today and I go in for surgery on Thursday. Hadn't hit me that this was really going to happen until this morning. I had work and buying my house to keep me occupied. But now that I am done with work and the house is in escrow all I can do is think about surgery...lol <<deep breath>> Gotta find something to keep me busy but close to the potty!!

Going to go wash the car. It's a beautiful day.

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.

Good luck on your surgery on Thursday. I hope you have an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery. Thursday will be here before you know it.

Congrads on your surgery on Thursday and then you are on the losers side of the bench. You will be in my thoughts and prayers for a uneventful sugery and a speedy recovery. Once you get home, walk and sip sip sip. Will be waiting for you post when you get home.
