tricare dosent have any time limits or anything required like that. so once i got into the surgeons office, they handed me a list of appointments i need (wellness center, nutrition, psych evaluation ect) and told me to finish those and get sig's and when i am done with those, to come back. They said it takes about a month to do the appointments. so i called and scheduled my appointments, the nutrition takes 4 weeks to complete, since i'll be finishing that in late April and they are currently scheduling 2 to 4 weeks out for the OR they think i'll be in the OR in late may early June. :) Im excited to get this started. i was hoping to get the nutrition and everything done this month but no appointments avalible till later in the month and next month.

well technically my "process" started yesterday lol with my first surgeon appointment. so thats not an issue. but i continue to gain weight no matter what i do. when i was on bc it stopped but when i got off, i could eat nothing and workout 24/7 and still gain fat... it sucks but thats why im in this mess and why i am going through with the surgery.

Still have to do my EGD. Didn't have a 6 month diet. No psych evaluation, thanks to my psychiatrist writing a letter to the surgeon. That will save some time and money. Hoping for surgery in late May or early June. My next appointment is April 7. Good luck to everyone!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
