Newbie from Kentucky Saying HI!!!

Hi I'm new I'm 38 yr old mother of 3 happily married to my National Guard soldier for almost 18 years. I have had a weight problem most of my life and am currently 4'9" and weigh 215 lbs. As I'm sure everyone here has done I've been on and off diets all my life. I have sucess for awhile and then slip up and gain it all back and then some. I am just starting the process of looking into the lap band system for myself. I have Tri Care insurance which as of last year has approved lap band surgery for their customers with certain conditions. I meet the weight condition and the diet condition but I don't have any serious problems caused but the weight with the exception of mild depression. So I don't know if I will be able to get approval or not. And my doctor is being a pain. So please wish me luck.
