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.  |

| Super Moderator  | Try not to gulp, as you can gulp air along with water, and that can bloat you up. You're far enough out for it not to be not safe, though.

| Super Moderator | Not to be not safe--it isn't safe the first few months while you are still healing, Gulping water can *push* against your staples, but everything has pretty much healed where you're at now, so it shouldn't cause trouble, except that air is easily gulped along with water when you gulp.

| Super Moderator | Not all of your wiring is fully rewired yet.  That and the incisions being healed are different. Besides, you will get your hunger back, but the hunger will not be exactly the same as the king of uncontroallble hunger you had pre op. I explained the why in another thread. So, you don't need to fear that you will feel the same kind of ravenous hunger as you did pre op. What is most important is not to get in the habit of grazing as it's easy to overload that way.
