I have Tricare Prime also. I did not have a 6 month diet wait. I think it depends on which region you are in. I'm in Tricare South. All I had to do was have my PCM referral. Have a psych eval, an EGD, chest X-ray and bloodwork. The whole process was about 3 months. Tricare gave the approval in 2 days.

They haven't gotten your lab work from November??? I would be calling someone everyday until that was taken care of. There's no excuse for that delay.

Carrie. I just wanted to let you know I read your blog. I think you're awesome. I admire your attitude and self-confidence. Keep up the great work.

I call it the jimmy legs too!!! Lol
I have found drinking enough fluids has helped.

Hi qtinkc,
We share surgery dates! I like how you said it will be the first day of the rest of your life. I've been telling everyone that it will be the first day of the BEST of my life!

Welcome to the November gang!

I'm like you I really didn't want to say anything. But I work in a small office of 4 ladies. We've been together 12 years and diets and weight have always been an issue for me. They are all normal size and of course I'm not. I cried when I had to tell my supervisor and I had to tell her to get the time off on the calendar. She told one other lady for me. I waited 2 weeks before I told the last one because she is a drama queen so I knew it would be a constant subject for her. And it has been.
I didn't want my husband to tell his mom even though we live in a different state because she's the town cryer. He told her on Saturday and his whole family know now. But in the end pretty soon it will be obvious to everyone that I've done something. And when I'm thin I won't care if someone says something about my weight!

Hi. I am hoping for a November 18 surgery date. I heard from my doctors office today that everything was submitted to the insurance company. So I'm just waiting on an approval. Glad to have you guys for support.
