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.

Thanks Doc. I've noticed a lot of people saying that Day 3 and 4 are the hardest. Luckily I have support group the evening of day 3 with the nutritionists. Hopefully she'll be able to help me through!

Sounds like you're going in knowing it's going to be tough so you've won half the battle already. You can do this!

Thanks everyone! I am having a terrible headache right now and every now and then I get a little dizzy. I think I may call the nutritionist later and make sure I am doing everything right.

Ahh, the headaches are either carb withdrawal or caffeine withdrawal, or both. You'll have to ride it out.
