Woohoo! Finally, after a couple years of frustration, and waiting, waiting, tests and more waiting...it's next week! July 7th.

I am, of course, excited, scared, nervous, but mostly relieved that the waiting is over....the journey begins.

I have read and will read in the future just about everything on this forum. Great support, invaluable information. Thanks, every single one of you!

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.

Well, if there was ever anyone prepared for this experience, it'd be you, Sue!! Good luck on the grand opening! May the surgery be textbook perfect and your recovery boring!

SueZ, Hey I finally found someone my age in here. You're lucky you get to have your surgery soon. I've got 3 months to worry before I get mine!! Keep me informed how it goes for you. I have this crazy feeling that it's so much harder for us older gals to get thru the surgery than the younger ones. Hopefully that is all in my head and we both get thru with flying colors!!!
