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.

Wow...I can't even imagine saying that out loud - that's amazing! Do you 'believe' it yet?? Has it sunk in? Do you suprise yourself when you just happen to see your reflection in a store front glass or something like that?
Congratulations!

Denise I still see the fat girl most of the time, I dont own a full length mirror so I only see my face most days and yes when I catch a glimpse of myself I often wonder who that small woman is..lol...even my Mom who was here for a month did the same thing, she said she saw me walk past the window in the store and wondered who that pretty, tiny woman was..lol...it was me....I am in shock when I look at pictures of me. My uncle saw pics of me last week and told my grandma he has never seen me so tiny...lol. It is an amazing feeling I tell ya

That is a wonderful wow, to be considered not overweight anymore. I cannot wait to get to where I am not considered overweight. I was overweight and morbit obese most of my life. I was thing for only about two years, right after high school. I lost weight when I left home and my lowest was 145 pounds at my sisters wedding and when I got married a few monts later I was around 155. That is when I started to gain it back and then some. It seemed every time I got pregnant I gained alot of weight and after my last child was born then it really pilled on me. You have done a wonderful job losing the weight and you look so gorgeous and thin. You sure are an inspiration to me.
