Hi Nana! I live in Fayetteville and work in HSV.. :tongue_smilie:

Wendy, you pass my home and workplace everyday...i assume you take the parkway into Hsv. I lived in Fayettville for 15 years but moved back to HG July 2005. I miss living in Tn. (Al state taxes-omg).

You are doing so well. I have slowed down a lot...but as soon as i get back from DC i will get another fill and hopefully be a looser once again. keep in touch.

Congrats on getting through all the red tape! Are you submitting paperwork for approval or have you already got that too? I used Dr. Miles and my appt was about a month out from approval so hopefully that will work out for you!!! I have my 3rd fill appointment this afternoon!! Not sure if you've been on the thread for Dr. Miles and Schmitt but here's the link if you want to talk with anyone that's used them. Keep us updated!!

Hey crazygirl2006,

I'm just down the road from you in Oneonta. Dr. Groves from Boaz did my surgery. Good luck with your surgery and God bless your husband while he is protecting us.

Hi,

Are you using Tricare for the surgery? I have been told that the approval process is quick but I don't think Miles in on the list. My file should be submitted to Tricare electronically on Tuesday for approval and they said I should know something Thursday or Friday.

Please thank your husband. There is a list here for military spouses. Mine has been twice and is preparing to go as a contractor. I am in the same boat - hoping to get my surgery done before he leaves. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your husband.

aprilapple, it does go by fast it seems.

i guess having to go to the doctors office the 13th and the 19th makes it seem closer.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
