karenandrews 0 Posted December 12, 2008 :wink_smile:Hi All, I am in the process of applying for the band via Tricare. I had my PCM put in my referral yesterday. She said I was an "ideal" candidate. Call me crazy, but that made me smile. First time being heavy made me ideal for anything! I was so glad that she feels as though I can do this and Tricare will approve me. She said it she has 4 woman who have done it and they are doing wonderfully. No problems and swear it is saving there lives. I am so looking forward to the change. I am 225 pounds and only 5'1. I am a size 22-24 and I am only 33 yrs. old. I want a different life. My husband alternates between wanting me to lose and saying I am fine. Now I am doing this FOR ME! I can't wait and I am already exercising and drinking tons of Water. I stopped sodas about 2 mos. ago and now I am thinking of see a behavioral therapist to get me on the right track. I am looking forward to getting to know people here. Karen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
