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.

Yes. They don't do surgery on the colon (which is part of the large intestine). The reroute involves the small intestine.

Sure you can.
The surgery involves only your stomach and small intestines, not your colon a.k.a. large intestines.
