Topic: Bethesda Naval Anyone?
 I'm going to Bethesda to have my sleeve done.  It looks like Dr. Lin will be my surgeon.  So far the team seems great but I'd love to hear from anyone who has "been there done that".  

Thanks!

Congratulations on getting back on the ball for the major change of your life!  

Jan or Feb will be here in no time. Soon you will be a "Loser Army Wife"!   By the way thank your husband for serving our Country.  

As far as getting an answer I think you should post a new message on the MD forum so people can see it since this one is 2 pages behind.  

I don't have an answer but I want to wish you all the best in your journey.

Hi Emilia,

You can check my profile and see my journey there.  I am 4 1/2 years post op and no I have not had plastic surgery.  Finances has been a killer for the past 3 years so I have had to put that on the back burner.  My surgeon had given me the ok to have PS 1 1/2 years ago. 

I hope and pray that this coming year is better for us so that I can focus on getting a lower body lift and tummy done, arms and breast augmentation.

 I'm just starting the journey.  I had my initial group consult and my surgeon will most likely be Dr. Lin at Bethesda Naval.  I'm really excited about him and his staff.  I'd love to hear from anyone who has been to Bethesda and their experience.  I am planning on getting the Sleeve so I have mainly been there.  I tried to do this last year but at the time Tricare had a different set of rules and I didn't qualify.  Now I'm going through the MTF so it doesn't even matter.

I already have all my appointments book and I should be able to see the surgeon in early December and hopefully get a surgery date in January or February.  Thanks for the welcome.

Unfortunately a lot of women have that perception. For example Mo'nique (TV) she had that same philosophy but I see that all changed cause she lost weight and all.  So when they realize that they have to lose weight all that changes.  It shouldn't be seen as ok at all.
