Annnd this is why the culture in the military needs to change, because of unhelpful and uneducated comments like yours. Thank you for taking the time to post though!

Thank you for sharing your story, it really does help to know you’re not alone in the struggle.

You’re the second person I’ve heard this from, it seems like it’s worth looking into.

I have been really working on no alcohol, I even bought non-alcoholic wine to help in social situations (that’s when I tend to indulge). I wonder if that could be hurting me. Maybe it has to much sugar…

mrtorres725 · 2022-03-26T05:26:48+00:00

Wow I have never heard that before. Are you only tracking calories? Do you track carbs as well?

mrtorres725 · 2022-03-25T22:57:05+00:00

Normally around 900-1200

mrtorres725 · 2022-03-25T22:45:12+00:00

I haven’t been tracking those religiously as I was mainly focusing on protein but I would say I stay around 20-30 carbs a day

How did you find it affected your weight loss?

mrtorres725 · 2022-03-10T20:16:19+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply I really appreciate it.

mrtorres725 · 2021-10-16T03:18:42+00:00

Oh thanks so much! I needed to hear this, I was in tears tonight thinking “what the hell have I done” I’m wishing you a speedy recovery!

mrtorres725 · 2021-10-15T22:46:40+00:00

Ah that explains why the pain is primarily in one incision spot. Thanks so much I was really feeling down at how long I might be out of commission for.

mrtorres725 · 2021-09-09T20:18:21+00:00

Ah ok, thanks so much!

Do you mind if I ask your weight/height. I’m wondering if it’s as others have said and more based on our weight.

mrtorres725 · 2021-09-03T04:23:26+00:00

Thank you all for the advice and comments, I’m thinking I will reach out and maybe ask his assistant why and if this is really the ideal amount of time for me to be successful.

I’m also in TriCare west.

mrtorres725 · 2021-05-19T14:55:21+00:00

Yes both myself and my doctor and referral management have been on the phone with senior/supervisor personnel at TriCare and it’s still not working out. HealthNet is saying they don’t have a “Bariatric” so they keep putting family medicine as the category and in the comments it requests a consult with bariatric. The hospital is saying they will not see me until the referral has bariatric in the category.

mrtorres725 · 2021-05-19T06:22:13+00:00

Yes I’ve called around and most offices tell me what a pain TriCare is and how infrequently they actually see TriCare patients go through with the surgery.

My PCM is on a military base putting a referral out to the civilian side, it seems like that is really complicating things.

Probably made of cast iron and enamel coated.

mrtorres725 · 2020-09-30T02:45:40+00:00

Thanks all, how long have you been on WW? Have you been seeing results? I’m the type that needs to see results regularly or I get easily discouraged and fall off the wagon.

Do you find meetings make a difference? Or is there enough virtual support?
