Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   |  Hello from New Zealand Hi there I am a almost 35 year old from Wellington, New Zealanad who is currently at the stage of seriously considering WLS. I am currently 171 kgs, which is approx 376 pounds. I have been overweight since I was 9 years old, and since about I was 13 I would have been considered obese, morbidly ovbese since about age 17. I guess I am here as I want to know more about WLS and think things through. I would love to read your stories and get to know you all a bit better. Cheers Splendidfluff

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 | Thanks Kenyar I am sure that I will find this site very useful. I have a cousin and a close friend who have had the full gastric bypass since December last year and they are both doing really well. I have been hovering here for the last couple of days and I am sure that this is the place for me to get my head around my decisions. Cheers Splendidfluff
