LMAO...okay so some weird news...I'm not just obese, I'm pregnant!!!! So surgery denied....lol...good reason though...GL to everyone else

Hi Everyone! I'm new here and this is my first posting. I have Tricare Prime, and we are stationed in Missouri. I went to my very first Dr. Appt. with my PCM yesterday. I was shocked that not only did she think I was a good canidate for WLS, but she put my referal in right away. I have read enough on here not to get my hopes up yet. I have my psych eval this friday and my nutritionist meeting on the 13th. Unfortunatly, my surgeon doesn't do a seminar in Dec., so I have to wait until Jan 2 before I can make an inital appointment. I hope with the holidays this time will go by quickly!!! I don't know how fast Triwest moves, but I am crossing my fingers. I was wondering if anyone else has had luck with them. My BMI (wich doesn't mean anything to them) is 40.7. My height is 5'3" and weight is 230. My PCM put high blood pressure as a co-morbid. Thanks in advance for any info!!! Good luck to everyone.
