Had my 5 fill today 8cc in my 10cc band I pray this will do the trick cause I have not lost anything in about 2 months actually gained about 5 pounds. I am not ready to throw in the towel yet. May 20 will be one year and have only lost 40 t0 45 lbs. Hopefully by my band anniversary (sp) I would at least like to have lost 50 lbs.:thumbup:

Hey all just got back from my 2 week check up and I am down 16lbs! The best news is I can now have mushies! I never knew tuna would taste sooo good. Dr very pleased and wants me to be up to 3 miles a day by 2 months out. Just wanted to check in and spread my victory. Mecia

scared of what?

:confused_smile: Hey all I get on the Band Wagon tomorrow morning at 9:45. Best wishes to everyone getting on today tomorrow and beyond! I will update as soon as I can.

Dr Clark in Newport News if you have not found a Dr. for her.

I"m Approved ! Waiting on Dr. Office to call back with date. Whoo Hoo!! Happy Dance!! It has taken $ months but May 20 9:45 I enter BandLand!! :glare:

I just read your blog I think you need to change your weight for 1/17/08 I know you don't weight 280! I really enjoyed you blog congrats on a job well done. Hope to fill those same size shoes on day.

I am so happy for you guys .My dr. submitted mine on Thur. or so they said and I can't find anything for me except and old approval from 2 years ago. Maybe sooooon!

I started the process on 1/16/08 and spoke with the Dr. office today and they are just now sending the paperwork to Tricare. I have completed all the preop testing and nut & psych eval. I just hope everything there goes smooth. I did not get an estimated time period. I think each Dr. has thier own protocol.

You may be right! I am getting a little discouraged. This stress is only making me snack more. It is like my Dr does not want to take Tricare at all..

Can you give me the number you called maybe I can find out something that way.

I have gone to the seminar seen the surgeron nut eval blood emmi EKG and psych eval I am just waiting on approval. I have prime I did not know standard was faster. I will have it done at Martha Jefferson Hospital here. We are not near a military facility. I had my hystorectomy done Porstmouth. My husband is retired Air Force. Well keep in touch and let me know how things are going and I will do likewise. Maybe next year this time we will be in onederland.

I am in Charlottesville we moved here from Hampton and boy do I miss Hampton. I am not approved yet it seems to be taking forever. The coodinator says this is her first Tricare. I hope she sends all the proper paqperwork. Have you had the sugery yet?

Thanks! Since we talked I found site and registered but now I have to wait for a security code for about 10 days. I am so hoping I can get this done before it gets real hot here. Have you had the sugery yet? If so how long was your approval process?

Virginia I guess that is south.
