Default hey there dont' know where to start this thread

ok so i am flying to toronto tomorrow i have to see a dietician a social worker and medical internist (sp) and also have an appointment with my surgeon. The way it's supposed to go is that if I am medically ok to go through with the surgery and everything and i have lost a bit of weight and quit smoking he SHOULD give me a surgery date. well i believe my medical appointment will be alright and i have quit smoking but ... :| i have been trying so hard to loose weight and have not budged. I"m kinda worried that he wil tell me to come back in a few months *sigh* there isn't really a question here.. just a rant i guess .. BOO....

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.

Wishing the best on your drs visit. Hope everything works out.
As for where this thread should be--well, since you are asking a Q, it may as well stay here but if you have updates on your preparations, any place from Your Profile, Personal Thoughts to Preparing for Gastric Bypass Surgery will do.

MOST of the time they require you to quit 6 weeks before surgery so mabye you will be fine for right now. That will be hard. I had to do it myself and it was the worst thing I have ever endured but I did it because I wanted this surgery so bad.

That dosnt surprise me about the weight loss before surgery ! My surgeon is the same way ! If ...I didnt lose weight before surgery ...I would still be on the waiting list ! There is people in my drs office waiting still after 3 years of there 1st visit because they havnt lost any weight ! If my Dr thinks that your not putting an effort out to lose...he wont operate !
