  • i loathe the word fatty i think id have to beat my bf's ass if that was the word he used to describe obese people hehe u know thats not the first time ive heard of people dropping large amounts of weight from not drinking pop...guess we'll find out huh

  • Hahah, yeah, I'm not a big fan of the word, either! But it's better than fatass, I guess.

  • I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. I can't believe I'm just now finding your channel.

  • Thanks Dena! I'm VERY surprised I hadn't run into your channel until now, either! I'm in the process of checking out all of your videos :)

  • Wow, I thought that all insurance companies covered this surgery! Or at least that's what I've been hearing from other youtubers! That stinks a lot!!

  • Yeah, it pretty much stinks! The decision to not cover it was ultimately my employer. They have the ability to review exclusions on a case-by-case basis since they have a self-insured plan. They decided not to unfortunately.

  • OK...I am a HUGE geek..this video was from a LONG time ago, LOL!!!!All I saw was todays date and then saw a recent video and you disappeared, very small now :) Ignore my last comment..I am such a loser, LOL, hehe!!!

  • I didnt make any videos before my gastric bypass surgery. This is reminding me of my pre surgery struggles and making me motivated to not ever be back in this place!!! I was right where you were too as far as frustrated over slow weight loss or no loss at all despite following all the rules. I needed something drastic too.

  • My health insurance does not cover WLS either. I've pretty much decided that it's not for me, anyway, but I am super supportive of those who do have it done.

  • Thank you for the kind words! As far as being a good speaker, I think I sound like a huge dork! I really hope that your insurance comes through for you. Let me know if they don't! I'm self-pay now so I might have some info that would be beneficial!
