Yes! I told my husband you will lose weight also! Everyone can lose a few here and there! I think it will help the family as a whole eating better! -
So after years of losing and gaining weight I am finally having the sleeve done May 19th. I am excited and nervous but very ready. I am having this done in Seoul, South Korea. Not by choice, but was told and seen how amazing the health care is here. Husband is military so we are here. Tricare isn't covering the sleeve so all out of pocket for us. I am happy I found this place and looking forward to awesome support from the veterans of this! I have read through a lot of topics and everyone has been encouraging and an inspiration!

OMG yay!!! Yes my friend had to wait a full year. How exciting!!! My husband and I joke that I will lick something and be full. LOL I think he is more nervous than I am. -

We are overseas and tricare overseas is different. But also have a friend in South Carolina where they aren't covering her sleeve but a full bypass. Thankfully the price here is affordable. I have a different friend who had the sleeve done a little over a year ago by tricare also. There are so many new policies and changes I think every region is different now. BUT very confident in the surgeon here. The medical care here is much better than anywhere we have been in the last 14 years. Thank you and When are you having yours? -
My husband said I am lazy

I am so sorry your husband isn't being supportive. My husband and I talked about getting this surgery a lot. And I think it is a life changer not just for me but for him too. Thankfully we joke about licking something and being full. I think there is an adjustment period for them too. Good luck and I hope his thinking changes!!! -
I am going in May 19th! My husband is military so I am in Seoul South Korea but have heard nothing but amazing comments about the doctors here. I must say medical care here is amazing and fast. They are much farther advanced than in the US! Good luck!!!
