Hi Meriteri-tks for the encouragement-I am leary of going to a military base to have the surgery esp. the one that is close to us-I heard horror stories-1 military spouse my husband knows had her surgery done at that base & has had complications on and off for bout 2 yrs now & I heard bout some other similar stories-its my understanding that unless the surgeon has performed at least 100 sleeve surgeries than you shouldn't consider him-don't know how well I'll do w/trying to lose weight while I wait for the sleeve to be approved by tricare as I haven't been able to lose the weight b4-I've gained bout 75 lbs since I turned 42 & I'm turning 50 next mo-I need to lose bout 140lbs-but, Im positive I should not go thru with the bypass-so, I'll either have to wait for tricare to cover the sleeve or convince my hubby to self-pay for it - have a great day ;0)
