Copied from an email sent to me:

Hello everyone!

I have some fantastic news to share with all of you!
The legislature has reinstated bariatric surgery coverage for COVA members!!
They will be adding some additional requirements for patients to meet before having surgery, but this is still a huge accomplishment!!
THANK YOU to all of you who emailed and called the legislators!  They were the ones who had it reinstated, and your calls/emails made the difference!

Thanks!  I love that 1.whatever lbs of breathing room.  LOL  I'm still trying to lose a few more but things have been SLOW going.  Really slow.  Pretty much since the beginning of the year.  No worries though, I'm happy where I am.  :)
