I wish you the best of luck. In the end it is all worth it. Just keep your head high and always have a prayer in your heart. You'll be fine. Christine

We're Army, but we're in NC, stationed here at Fort Bragg in Fayetteville. We LOVE it hear. Unfortunately, looks like we're moving down to GA in November! Jill

Another Air Force wife here. We are stationed at Los Angeles AFB in California. I have my surgery next month in August.

Nice to meet you too Jenn! I am having my surgery at Travis AFB. I've known two other Coastie wives to have it there recently and they both said they'd do it again in a heart beat! They are both doing very well and loosing a lot of weight. I live in Novato. I am not sure how far you are from Travis, but there's a support group starting up there. They've only had one meeting. I will find the web page and send you the link. ttfn, Donna

oops, realized that was the title to MY post! sorry...
