Hey all!!

My name is Samantha and me & my family are air force and stationed out in florida right now.

I have chosen to get the lap band surgery done. I have tricare so it is going really fast. I had my first evaluation yesterday and they told me i will have my surgery date by friday. And they are scheduling 4 weeks out right now so they told me to expect mid-april.

Now I just need to go get my psy evaluation, diet eval, esophogram and gallbladder ultrasound.

A little about me...I have a wonderful husband and 3 great kids. My kids are ages 3 yrs, 2 yrs, and 6 months (this is why i'm overweight cause i didn't lose it in between kids lol)

I'm very excited to see a forum to seek advice from and give advice after I have had experiences. And also to share my succees when it comes

Welcome. You have a beautiful family. I was banded on 2/13 and already my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. Good luck and if you are looking for a buddy - I will be here.
