Lap Band with 3 kids

A Little About Me

First I want to start off with a little about me. At the age of 22 I am hppily married to a US Army soldier, stay at home mother of 3, and love to be out n about doing stuff and hanging with friends. I had to put education on hold till i find a reliable sitter but i am slowly working on my RN. My husband and I choose to stop having children so I am taking this time to work on myself. I start to look into the lap band because: !. I have fought with weight my whole life 2: i want to live a betterlife for my children and teach them to live to healthier life 3: with the last like 20 pounds i started to really noice the effects like getting out of breath quicker, knees hurting all the time, and clothes just not fitting at all 4 this is what broke the the "fat straw" i weigh more now than i ever did when i was pregnant.   so March 6 2012 i went to my seminar, March 16th met with the NP and mental Health Eval, March 19th lab work and upper gi, April 5 nutrionist class/ first WLS support group April 13 surgery approval.... April 26th Stars pre op diet. and May 10th Surgery Now I have heard some awful stories about gettin approved for WlS through tricare (tricare south prime!)... i am guessing it as farely easy for me because i had already been working with my PCM for sometime and i met the more that 100 pounds over wieght. I mean it took them less than 24 hours to approve the request.the only co morbidity i have is bad knees and if i dont change i am on my way to diabetes.   The biggest question I have "Are you scared?" no i am not scared to be changeing my life. i am excited. i am scared about the mood swings i will have with on the pre op diet but thats about it,\
