I'm hoping to get a revision to a bypass for gerd and sleep apnea if that is a possible. I called tricare and the lady said that they only cover 1 weight loss surgery in the lifetime or the person. Any experience with getting approved with tricare select?

Hello! I paid for my sleeve out of pocket and looking to get a revision due to GERD as well. I have tricare select. The insurance coordinator said that tricare is really good about revisions. I’d not mention it’s for weightloss but for a medical reason. In your case GERD and sleep apnea. Good luck and I hope it works out.

Hey, guys well I am 10 1/2 years post-op. I've let myself go manage to lose 40 pounds again but I still have a good 65 to 70 minimum that I want to lose.
I want to do a pouch reset but I'm not 100% sure how to go about doing it? I was just going to drink protein shakes and smoothies for a week or 2 but is there anything i really should do or know before i jump in head first?

Thanks in advance!!!

as they say everyone is different. i didn't gain any weight when i was pregnant with either baby. i also carried pretty far back so i didn't look pregnant until i was 8 months along. when I have my first i was 35 pounds lighter and managed to keep that off for a year. the second pregnancy went similar to the first. except i gained 20 pounds after i was done nursing.

Thank you sooo much. Im not sure that there is a nutritionist where i am now. I moved from ca to germanyand the clinic that i goto is pretty small but i will see my main dr and see what she has up her sleeve..
