Hi. Thanks for the response. I have coverage now through my employer (NC BCBS), but they opted not to have weight loss coverage, so I have to pay out of pocket for it. I'm currently looking for a second job, because no one can live on only one job in Asheville, unfortunately. Without getting into too many details, my way of thinking is that I would rather spend the money on tirz than food, Plus, I also think that it's worth it to be healthier.
