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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Oh SO NORMAL. I myself was so nervous, I stopped them when they put me on the operating table and held it off for 45 minutes, they had to get my husband in there to talk me into telling them I was ready and they could do the surgery! You will be so glad when you are on the other side, so relieved. You will be in my thoughts tomorro, let us know when you are home and feeling better!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Jennifer, I too was nervous, but the staff are really good at calming you down and making you feel good. They relax you so much the next thing you know you are waking up and its over. You will do fine I will be thinking of you.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Jennifer, I had the same feelings that yo are having. I was nervous and wondering if my weight was just not something I could live with. Even after the surgery there were many days when I wondered if I had done the right thing. This website will be a lifesaver in the next few weeks. Now it has been three months and I would never go back and change a thing. Believe me, the good days will far outweigh the bad and before you know it all doubts will be far behind you. Good luck tomorrow. I will be thinking about you and waiting to hear that all went well.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Seriously, EVERYONE that has had this has felt what you felt. Don't let anyone ever tell you you took the easy way out. Trust your surgeon, keep busy until tomorrow. Then, enjoy the drugs and follow the rules your program gave you to the "T", thats the best thing you can do for yourself. Do you have someone there with you. Get up and walk, snag a sf popsicle from the nurse each time you get up, they taste soo good, you won't be able to be but half of it initially, but it tastes great. Best of luck.
