louisiana has good food and obese people

this was on channel 9 news tonight http://www.wafb.com/Global/story.asp?S=6145509

Sounds good to me. I have a friend that weighs 430Ibs and wants wls surgery but his insurance won't pay for it. So I hope this goes through and he will be able to have it.

DON"T let her give up!! It has taken me 4 years total to get to this week's surgery.... 2 complete "retesting" sessions of psych/health/etc, 1 yr of dieting with drs, and so on... I have watched all my friends become amazing success stories, while I sat here fat and "healthy" as determined by my insurance company. I have finally battled to meet every one of their "requirements" including a $5000 copay!! I made it though, and your friend can to! HANG ON!!
