HI !!! I am new to both OH and MO Board...hoping to have RNY with hornbostel

I just wanted to say HI i am new to OH and new to the MO board...i was at Hornbostel Forum and I saw Jan's invite so figured i would pop in and say hello!!!

Hi, Army Wife, Welcome, welcome, welcome, to the Missouri Board and to OH in general.  You are so lovely, can't wait for you to join the losing side.  You have a wonderful doctor and I know you'll do just great.  Having a supportive husband is great.  Are you at Fort Leonard Wood?  There are other members there, at least one from this board?  I know your appointment seems far away but it will be here before you know it and Dr. H is worth waiting for.  Keep on doing all the right things - I think Tricare is pretty good to work with you. Hugs and love, Lana

Lana, Thank you for such a warm welcome!!! And for the positive words of encouragement!! I look forward to the journey, with everyone here by my side. I am so greatful for this website. EVERYONE has been so kind and receptive. Yes we are at leonard wood, i love it here in MO

Howdy Army Wife!!! Welcome to OH and to the Mo Board!! We will be looking forward to hearing more from you and hope you keep us updated on how things are going with your journey for WLS....God Bless...Hugs..Tammy~ammy

Tammy thank you so much for the warm welcome!!! I am glad to have ladies like you to share my journey........

Hi Army wife.....so glad that you decided to come over and give us a try. You will find some very sweet and giving people on here. You have picked one of th top doctors in the world as far as i am concerned. He is great. Cant wait till you are a loser too.   Jan

Jan, Thank you for the invite to begin with...i would never have stopped in if not and i am so greatful i did, i have learned alot already!!! Andrea

Hi Army wife, Welcome to the MO board..You have picked a wonderful doctor. You won't be disappointed thats for sure. I have to go to columbia because the hospital won't except my ins for bariatric surgery. But they have good doctors in columbia also. Just seems kinda silly to have to drive 1 1/2 hrs away when I live in Sedalia and have the best right here. Good luck on your journey...

beverly, Thank you for the welcome. I am sorry to hear that  you have to travel so far for something that can be done right in your own back yard. I hope the Dr you have will take very good care of you. I look forward to sharing in your journey, and i wish you all the best!!!

Welcome I am not a regular poster but the regulars here are so helpful and dedicated to the slackers like me I have computer issues so I am trying to be less intimidated by this process.But I know these forums cover all the issues and are so supportive.Best of luck with your journey.
