In Detroit the bypass is upwards of $30,000. The lapband isn't covered by every policy, but when my mom had it done last year it was $12000. Her insurance covered 80% of it and the hospital wrote off around 2 grand. So her out of pocket wasn't that bad.

Enroll in an active art work class, such as sculpture or even ceramics.

Purchase a plant for your office—watering it will eventually make you more active.

I know someone who had lap-band surgery. Her insurance wouldn't cover it, so she had to pull $15,000 out of her IRA for it.

Keep a tiny water glass, which you need to refill often, instead of a sizable water bottle on your table.

if you dont have insurance, GB is about 27 thousand dollars, If you have insurance your insurance will pay it, but they will make you do 12 months on a weight program first.

I think when you reduce your current tummy and also get used to having a smaller amount, it helps.

Drink lots associated with water. (You'll stand up for refills and trips for the bathroom. )
