I'll give it a try.. My email address is angeleyezzz250@yahoo.com. Thanx for sharing.

Thanx so much for the kind words of encouragement. They are greatly appreciated for sure. Everyone on here is a inspiration to me..

Congradulations on your loss. I am happy for you. Keep up the good work.. All of you guys are such and inspiration to me..

Well I thought I would share my inspirations as well.. Jessica (first 2 pics) is 19 months old. Shes just so much fun and I want to be able to do fun things with her later on when shes older. Haley(pics 3 and 4) is my step-daughter but I love her as if she were my own. Same goes with her. She is 5 and is in kindergardin and I want to be able to do the fun things kids her age love to do as well.. Last pic is of me and my husband. That pic we were just being a goof and it makes my face look skinny. I really like that pic even though my husband was pretending that big smile- I hardly have any pics with him showing teeth while smiling So there they are..

I Called TRICARE Prime today and sure enough Dr. J is out of network. So I had them call Dr. Adam Smith to see if he was in network and took TRICARE Prime and he is in network. I was Happy to hear that after all the stuff with Dr. J. I called my primary care dr. and talked to the nurse and she is going to send my referral to him on Monday and give me a call after lunch to let me know when the next seminar is. She said the seminar is requierd so I am slowly getting there. What exactly goes on at the seminar? Does anyone know how fast the process is after the seminar for Dr. Smith is before your able to get the process on the road for the surgery? Tammy

Thanx for the info.. I will call my insurance again tomorrow and continue to til surgery. I was told i only needed the referral to get approved. I will ask Charlie what all his wife needed to do since they have tricare prime and she also went to Dr. Smith..

Thats awesome! I am happy for you

I know it will take some time before everything is set for the surgery but I am just happy that the refferal is being sent. How often do you have to see the psychologist and nutritionist/dietician? Is that something you have to pay for out of pocket since the refferal is only for the surgery or is all of that combined? O have so many questions its not even funny and it seems like I have been researching forever lol.. Thanx to those who read and respond. Your advise is very much appreciated..

WOW! you look great. I cant wait til I am able to post pics of my own. Kepp up the good work.

Your a great help. I thank you soo much for all the help you have given me..

How do I find him? Thanx so much for your info..

Thanx for the luck. I wish you luck as well. I wished we had it easy like some do with getting it approved. If you find anything out let me know and I will do the same..

Congrats!! Hopefully one day Ill be sharing the great news too! :-) good luck.

Im happy for you. I wish you luck..
