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 | I seriously wore sweatpants for 2 weeks. I got them a size bigger than I was when I went in. Now I can probably fit my whole body in them. Just buy clothes that are baggy and super comfortable.
