Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Oh My! Approved First Time! Oh My! I am so excited. Got the news today that my insurance company will cover the surgery! And they are not putting any restrictions such as having to the 6 months of diet, etc. I have my first two preop appointments scheduled. Once I have done those at the end of May and done my sleep study I'll be getting my surgery date! Never thought that I would be so excited about surgery!  If all goes as planned - I should be having surgery by the end of July. Ella

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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Congrads on the insurance accepting you. Glad everything is getting rolling for you. I am so excited for you. It is one heck of a journey. I love every moment of my journey except for those darn stalls, but they have to happen to for our bodies to get where it is suppose to be. When my daughter had her surgery I could not hardly wait to have my surgery. She looks wonderful and i am so proud of her. I was so amazed at myself today, wow did I do alot today. My son and his fiance where here today and wow did we get alot done around the yard. We trimed the tress behind the house and cleaned up twigs and got some of the machinery out of the trees. The trees look so nice and clean. Then my husband got dirt for my big tractor tires that I plant veg in and we worked with that and then he got lots of dirt and we leveled off all the bumps in our yard so that it is easier for me to cut the yard. Then my soon to be daughter-in-law picked up all the shingles that blew of the barn. I could not believe how many there where when I got there, it was ao overwhelming for me. We just started at one end and just kept going, took us over a half hour to get them all cleaned up. The middle of my stomach and my back hurt so bad. My daughter also brought out my grandchildren to take care of tonight and tomarrow. She has to work tonight and tomarrow and her husband is still at work tomarrow and is coming home tomarrow night. The grandkids are so good and well behaved. Tomarrow we are going to take them to Jamestown and do some shopping and then we are going to take the grandkids to Mc Donalds, they are sure looking forward to that.Now before surgery there is no way that I could have done what I did today. The energy is unbleivable since I lost all that weight. I kept up all day with them and I also made dinner for everyone too. I am excited for you too for the surgery becasue it is the first day of the rest of your life. It is amazing!!!!!!
