Talking This Is It!!

I am sitting here, watching the clock like I have all day. I am second on the list for surgery, 10:30. I had all my final pre-ops done today, and I have everything checked off of my to do list, except one more. That is to thank all you wonderful people who have listened to me whine, complain, get angry, get depressed, and generally must have been a pain in the rear since January. You all have seen my struggles and my victories and I know you're still cheering! So tomorrow, I carry a part of everyone of you with me into that operating room, because I don't know that I would have made it without your support. God sure blessed me good when He guided me to this website. It has been a wild ride and I am sure that it won't stop tomorrow morning. I love you all!!!!!!!!! See ya on the loser's bench!!!

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, you will be fine. I remember my surgury I was so nervous and time just seemed to take forever to go by but then it was like I blinked and it was done. I'm sure it will be the same for you and the next time we talk to you, you will be as surprised as I am that it is actually done. Still hasn't quite finished setting in for me yet.
