Talking Hello From New York!!

Hello all,
I started my process in January and I am scheduled for surgery on the 31st of this month. I feel like I have won the MEGAMILLIONS lotto game. Everytime I think about the things I will be able to do, and the confidence that I will build I just begin to scream with excitement!!!! No one really knows me, not even myself anymore. But that's about to change. This is going to be a fantastic journey.

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.

Deborah,
I guess I got off easy (no liquid diet). I have all of my pre-testing scheduled for this Thursday.
I suppose I will just sit here and glow.

Hi Pimadc,
You are one excited woman!!!!
So glad to have you on the boards with us. The post-op bunch are so good to answer all of our questions. My surgery is set for August 7th. My final pre-op visit with the surgeon is this Friday. It will be great to get to know you!
