Default newbie-Just looking for pre-op advice

Hello! I have just registered with a Bariatric Clinic and am trying to find real-life people who will share their experiences so I can make an educated decision whether this is right for me and what I will experience. I'm glad to know there are others out there to help me!

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.

Hello and welcome! I think you'll find this site supportive and helpful in your journey. You can learn a lot from using the search engine on here and from just asking questions.

I will be totally honest with you about my experience thus far in my wl journey. I've been one of the few who have had some complications along the way. The road has been hard but I will tell you that I still don't regret for one moment having had it. I've had too many positives happen for me to desire to go back. No more diabetes, high bp, acid reflux, sleep apnea, back pain, edema, high cholesterol or triglycerides! I can cross my legs, run, ride my bike and so much more now!

You are on the right track in wanting to educate yourself so you can make that informed decision and only you can make it. I hope your journey will take you to a place that will be best for you.

Hugs
