Hi, My name is Amanda and I've been lurking around on this site for a year or two.......just randomly when I had a question or wanted some info. I have now made the decision to get banded....my doctor put in my referral yesterday. I'm so excited but I don't want to get my hopes up. I am excited because she is the first doctor to actually be nice to me and not look at me like i'm just a lazy p.o.s that doesn't want to exercise. I have tried nearly everything............ I live in NC my husband is a Marine we have 2 kids. I'm 29yrs old........i'd love to hear feedback on other peoples experiences...........i look forward to chatting and HOPEFULLY putting my B4 and afters up :biggrin:

Hi and welcome,

Army vet and now an Army spouse so from one to another...Thank you for your service. I have no complaints with Tricare, I hope everything goes smoothly for you. I'm waiting for my surgery.
