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  | Depends on the surgeon so best to call his office and ask. Usually, it's several weeks to about 3 months, so, judging from your surgery date, you should be cleared in a few more weeks if not already. Just make sure that you get the clearance before you go off to the pool. Happy swimmings!!

5' 6" Height: | Hi Lizzy. My doc had me wait 3 mos. I love to swim too.I just got back from aqua aerobics and feel so good afterward. I've been looking for some swimsuits that are athletic with tummy control chest support in a 16 without much luck.Do you have any ideas on where one might find such a thing? I bet your doc will clear you for the pool in the very near future for the pool, if not already, judging from you WLS date. Your doing fantastic. |
