    Hi Laura,

    I look forward to watching your show. You are absolutely gorgeous!! I was browsing thru the WLS Channel site…..I love this site! I was denied my RNY surgery last month by my insurance carrier…but today…..I was humbled with tears when my insurance rep told me that my bariatric surgeon’s appeal was APPROVED……I am now approved for RNY…..and I am so excited. I’m going to start a vlog on You Tube to follow my journey on a monthly basis. I appreciate all that you are doing and all that you represent to WLS men and women across the world……..Many Thanks, Karen
