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   | Hi and welcome. I first researched the lapband and actually went to my surgeon requesting the lapband. But after learning about the hose thing that you will have for the rest of your life, and having to remove saline before flying, and that the national average of weight loss with lap band is 25%, I knew it wasnt right forme. Make sure you research thoroughly and write down any and all questions for your Dr. The two of you should decide what is best for you and will work for your situation. Best of luck to you and let us know if we can help in any way. |

| Super Moderator  | Welcome, thank you for joining us. It's easier for the banders to *outeat* your pouch than bypass patients. You need to watch the overall amount and balance of the food that you eat. Also, if you haven't made exercise a habit, you will need to. Discuss what to do with your surgeon and your nutritionist/dietician. (((((((HUGS)))))) May your journey go well.
