Hi everyone,

Just joined your group here in hopes to seek out as much information on Gastric
Bypass surgery. What is the best route to go when getting this kind of surgery
done?

I'm 5'4" and around 260lbs. I have tried everything and I'm at my wits end. Did
Atkins and got down from 300lbs to 240lbs but gained and I'm back up to 260lbs.

My next step is finding out if my insurance company will cover it, sigh. Some
people told me that most insurance companies won't cover these operations but I
would think it would be more of a benefit to the insurance companies to have me
slim and healthy then over weight and paying for all kinds of medical problems
later on down the road.
