I am so happy that you got the referral.  Tripler is the only military hospital however I am thinking they are ok.  I don't know any of the doctors there.  Is your PCP willing to give you a referral for outside services.  See if he is willing to let you have a second opinion.

Topic: Anyone has a menu plan....like local menu plan
I am just going on my third week.....just started protein.  Anyone knows if we can have a loco moco with brown rice no gravy.  Just two scoop or three....whatever my pouch can handle.  WHat about papaya?  Can we have that too? 

I know I needed to see a nutritionist, but I just didn't want to....felt uncomfortable.  Let me know....I rather hear from someone that went through the surgery, or someone that have gone through the classes.

I went to a site bariatric eating.  It tells you what to eat and what not to eat.  Not a menu plan.

AuntyJENN, after the liquid phase for two weeks.....I appreciate any taste of protein.  I will try to take it slow.....I was just rushing my eating....I do chew, chew, chew.  The thing is that I have a habit of eating and drinking.....that's when I get my pain....I was suppose to wait 30 min. before drinking fluids.

My workout today was okay....I just felt so tired.  I pushed myself, but I just feel out of it.  I ate boiled egg, and started throwing up.  I probably was rushing it.

Topic: PCP visit!!
So...today was the big day- i was so worried about being weighed....

I get to the office, and they dont even weigh me.... ahhh-

So my Doc. gave me a ref. to Tripler... hopefully i can get an apointment soon...very excited! He said there shouldent be any trouble with tricare..but we shall see... I have heard NOTHING about tripler- i have no idea what the deal is up there...

I hope there isit a long waiting list...DH is going to Iraq in NOV....I hope i can get something done before then...

So all that bindge eating for nothing... I drank about a gallon of water right before i got to the office, and the doc was about 30 min. behind schedule...talking about having to Pee!!

Well- I will keep you guys updated and let you know what happens- hopefully things will start to roll soon!!

Right on!! congrats on the awesome job!!!

adding the protien in is like a whole new world eh.? nothing is the same- but you learn to really enjoy what little you get to eat-

Start slow, and keep to your doc's diet!!

congrats again!!

Thanks Nahealani I am excited about my new journey, but it still takes a lot of other things.  EXCERCISE!!!!!!   I am going to the YMCA, and today will be my second week of workout.  Jus taking it one step at a time.

I do not want too much saggy skin.  My next visit to the doc will be the end of this month.  Which will be one month visit.  I do not weigh myself.  I just go to the doc to get the results.  Although my family noticed the HUGE changes.
