Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Newbie from MN
Hello Everyone, I just wanted to say hi as I am new to the site. Today, I saw the surgeon that will be doing my surgery. I'm planning on the Roux-en-y. I finish my emotional and nutrition appointments in early May. I can't believe this is finally going to happen. Any advice for someone just getting started?

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.  |
