| Whipper Snapper |  Cedars-Sinai Medical Center- Los Angeles, California My surgeons were Drs. Scott Cunneen and Theodore Khalili at the Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles (Beverly Hills), California. I had my surgery nearly 4 years ago, so I am certain things have changed there. The surgeons were AMAZINg, the staff was great. Both surgeons had terrific bedside manner and made yiu feel like you were their only patient. Although difficult to get in (I waited 6 mos for a consult, another 7 for surgery) it was well worth the wait! Sharon Osbourne (Ozzy's Wife, "The Osbournes" and Jackie Guerra, actress, both went to Cedas Sinai. Feel free to ask me about them! |

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.  |

| Guru In Training | I heard it on a talk show on the radio...she doesnt advertise it but supposedly she had it done, I once saw her at the Mall of America in Mlps and she was definatly a big girl...... very beautiful and carried herself like a queen... how she could walk in thoes high heels in that Mall atmosphere is beyond me. She had her nanny and kids with her, cute kids.. she rode a ride.... Peggy

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Wow.... Does she live in Minnosota?? I've been to the Mall of America once....I rode the swing...and the roller coaster...(I was MUCH thinner then!) anyway....I'm sad to hear that Kirsty Alley had WLS...and won't just say it publicly...and pretends that Jenny Craig was her savior. I know she's gotta make a buck...and she probably has a contract that she can't talk about it...but....anyway. Thanks for the info.... Peggy...do you live in Minnosota??

| Guru In Training | well I did, I lived there for 20 years, right south of ST. Paul... traffic.. I lived 20 minutes by freway from my job but it took me 1 hour to anf from work everyday.. then I wanted to move closer to my sisters and we downsized and sold our home and moved to Fargo, North Dakota, we love it here.. I guess cause I grew up here too, anyway I only drive 5 minutes to my job and if there is a wait on the busy streets in town.. I avoid the streets... I did love " the twin cities" but Fargo is now home to me.. Peggy
