Default Starting My Journey

Hi there,

My name is Ella. I live in Oregon and am at the beginning of my journey.

I have been heavy my whole life and am finally at the age where I have decided that it is time to get my life back. Not just for myself but for my 4 year old daughter too. She deserves a mom who can do things with her!

I am at the beginning stages of the process. I have located a surgeon and have attended the seminar and sent initial paperwork in. Now I am waiting to see what the insurance company is going to come back with and how hard of a fight it is going to be to get approved. I am really hoping that they are not going to make me jump through a million hoops but I am not holding out much hope for that.

I am reading everyone's stories and they are so inspiring. I have chosen the bypass surgery. I was originally going to do the LapBand but decided against it for a number of reasons.

I look forward to getting to know everyone....

Here is to the good fight!
Ella

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.
