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.

Spooky!! Where have you been?? 5 pounds a weeks is pretty stellar weight loss! You would have killed for those numbers a year ago. I know this seems like a competition, but everyone loses different and you'll stall, stop, start, and want to toss out the scale. Keep up the hard work...the mind stuff like grazing, eating sweets (and pasta!) and keep moving. Your body will do the rest. Nice Job!!

When is the last time you lost 5 pounds in one week? Everyone loses at different speeds. You are doing a fantastic job! Keep up the great work!
