Hi I'm new here and I'm very excited! My names Raquel but some call me roxy and I'm 21 years old.I'M married to a handsome Marine and I just had my appointment with my doc yesterday. He gave me my qualifcations I needed in order to get the surgery done. I have tri care prime and I got most of the list done today :-) such as 2 things of blood work a ekg which I got this morning and a history of trying to loss the weight (medical chart and diets also gym member ships) all that I'm waiting for now is for my refferal to go through to see a physcologist and waiting for a phone call to see the nutritionist. Ahhhh I'm just so excited and I can't wait to get this done.

Welcome! I'm former military and being a female usually ended up hanging with the wives. This is a great place for support and tricare is good about paying for the surgery!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
