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.

OMGGGGGGG Deborah you cracked me out hehehehe you're so crazy!! this is the last thing I would post publicaly!

I am so happy to see you first thing this morning! I missed you a lot. I'm so short in posting here as well! It's been over 2 months with house renovation/remodeling and it's taking all of my time! I was in Turkey last week for a workshop and came back for almost a week now I want to get back to the GYM as frequent as before but I'm either busy or lazy! Gosh it's hard to work for 8 hours then exercise for another 3-4 hours in one go!

I hope you're doing well with the lovely Bella. How is Russ with his school? You look so happy with the new you! tell me how is your new life going?

Miss you and love you a lot
Hanadi

Deborah, you sound just as cute as you look! Thanks so much for posting that. It's great to put a face with the post, but a voice and personality are the absolutely best!

(And your arms don't look that bad, mine flap in the breeze much more than yours. Hopefully that big extended wave will turn into a little royal wave. LOL)

Deb--

That was just the cutest thing, or rather YOU are the cutest! That video was GREAT! BTW it really ISN'T as bad as it could be!!! I'm sure the stretch marks aren't visible from a distance--AND you don't make a habit of waving with the skin hanging from your tricep area. Ha ha.

XOXO
Mya

Deborah you are so hilarious and cute as a bug to boot!! {{hugs}} God love ya you are sooo brave!

Hami girl I'm so sorry but the reality is that when we gain weight, it does effect our skin. I've seen sooo many gals out there who have unrealistic expectations about how they are going to look after they "lose all their excess weight".

Stretch marks hey..they aren't that bad really and most don't show in your clothing anyway which is what we are in for most of the time except for when we undress or dress and are in the bath/shower, you know what I mean?

Hey we're not looking at being strippers after we lose all the weight & believe me even THEY aren't perfect naked! cellulite & stretch marks abound even with them!!

Kathy,
I have them all over too! I was 342 pounds and now hover around 160. I was big all over, and my skin stretched, everywhere. I must say now, almost 6 years out, I don;t worry about them. But I'll share a funny story with you. I was able to get a tummy tuck, and my doc did an anchor cut on me, where he cut me up the center as well as side to side. He pulled extra skin from side to side as well as top to bottom. Now my strech marks go diagonally and meet in the center, I look like a freaky zebra.
However tanning helps then be not so noticable.
