USAFwife2009

I am a proud USAF Security Forces wife, mom of 8 awesome kids and a full-time student.  As I have gotten older, I have struggled more and more with my weight and it's not as easy to drop the pounds as when I was younger.  I hate that I can't keep up with kids, I'm always tired and my lower back pain is unbelievable since I've packed on the pounds.  I am soooooo excited about the surgery.  I know it's not a quick process, but having 8 children has given me alot of patience = )  I would love to meet some fellow lapbanders so I know what to expect.  I know everyone will have a different experience, but I'm sure there are going to be so many inspirational stories, it will help rest the few jitters I do have.
