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.

Welcome to the board Yvette, thank you for joining us.
Hope you feel at home here.
Congratulations on having your date, wishing you an uneventful surgery and uncomplicated recovery.

(((((((HUGS)))))) May your journey go well.

P.S. I have moved your post from Coffee Talk to here in Your Profiles which is the best place to get to know you, and for you to get to know everyone. I hope you won't mind.
