Hi all.  My name is Brian.  I have been severely overweight my entire life, I was a 150lb first grader.  I'm now 30 years old, and weigh 490 lbs.  It seems like at my past two jobs, the latest of which is actually at a hospital that the insurance I end up with always specifically has a provision saying they won't cover weight loss surgery for any reason.  I was wondering if anyone else has experienced that and if so, are they able to get around that and get it covered at least partly?  It is very frustrating to know that there is something that could improve my life drastically, but I can't reach it because of financial issues.  I'm tired of the things that come along with being this overweight and just want to get better.  I openly welcome any and all suggestions from anyone who may be able to offer tips/support.  My email address is [email protected]

Thanks for reading,
Brian
