  1. I was supposed to be doing my psyc eval today but I got a phone call about a hour ago saying that doctor isnt in the network. When they made the appointment I had to be refferred because I have tricare. So they should of know then that I couldn't bee seen by this doctor. I am supposed to be seem before my initial consult with my surgeon which is on August 1st. Now every doctor that they call to see if they are in network they either do the eval and are not in network, or they are in network and don't do the eval. The surgeons office does offer psyc evals but the drive is 2 and a half hours away from where I am now. I have jumped through so many hoops and now because of their mistake I have to pay for it. I hope that they find one this time that is in the network and that does the evaluations.
  2. I am in the same boat but have completed the seminar 4 months of diet with 2 left, my psyc eval is next friday amd I meet with my surgeon the 1st of August. I am looking at a october date! Good luck!
  3. could you bring your own pads to wear? I don't like pads at all but if I am goint to wear them I would at least like them to be comfy.
  4. Walmart has sport bras that feel like a real bra. They also separate in the middle so you dont have a uniboob. They are super comfy too.
  5. Thanks guys I am really nervous!
  6. I havr my first appointment with my surgeon on August 2nd. It will be the 5th month of my supervised diet. I have lost 25 pounds already. I have my psyc eval s scheduled and I dont have to do a sleep apenia study either. I am getting excites but I found out that my husband will be deployed in October, but I don't know what day my surgery is going to be. I am hoping he will be here when it happens. I am nervous, scared, excited and ready to make this life style change. Any advice for a newcomer like me? Thanks everybody for being so supportive.
