  1. So today was my official 1 year follow up (technically 2/15/17 is one year) and I met all of my goals! 115lbs down, under 35 bmi, and 60% total weight loss! I just am so happy and excited! Wow! I can't thank everyone enough for believing i could break a lifetime of poor habits, body image and health in a year! So excited!

    Joining the Military post-OP?

    Oh and it's a solid NO from the army and Marines but Air Force and Navy will work around it if at all possible

    Joining the Military post-OP?

    I had gallbladder surgery and my bariatric procedure is actually recorded by my surgeon as "treatment for hiatal hernia and GERD" since I was self pay, I could label it in any way they'd alternatively bill an insurance company. At this point, the Air Force recruiter says its still a go. I've been working with him for 3 months. He says once all is said and done and I take the officer test, I can be evaluated by their physician who will accept my medical documents as is. IDK, I guess its more alternative labeling rather than lying...

    Joining the Military post-OP?

    Know this is an old post but I'm really curious of the outcome. I'm 9mpo and I've really got my heart set on enlisting airforce as at least an E4. I have a degree and have been a civil service employee the last 10 years. I'm so close to goal, 40lbs to the requirement with my height. I even stopped work on my tattoo 1/2 sleeve to qualify. and new updates?
