Hi All
Hi All
I am new to the site and have been reading your post about your sucesses. I am very proud of all you and what you have done for your health and your life.
Some info on me: I am 5'4 and weigh 255, i have stuggle with my weight all my life. I have recently retired from the militay and was looking into the WLS surgery. I have a referral and I am waiting on the WL surgeon office to do their thing with my insurance company(TRICARE South). My husband stands behind my decison on the WLS have not decided which one I will have Band or Gastric, but leaning toward RNY however he supports me. I have also done research on both procedures and know the complications of both. I have high blood presure and pre-diabetic I take metformin for that. I am 200% over my ideal weight per the met life weight table per the calculations I heard tricare does. Hopefully I will get approved once I get all test/psy/and nut appointments completed. Again I justed wanted to say Hi and say what a great job on your weight loss.
