Do you know what unit your brother is in? And what his MOS (Job) is? My husband is 3rd brigade 1st infrantry division and he does signal communications. I am getting the lap band done. Honestly I dont know what the RNY is? I know..Airheaded..I have those moments. lol..And Savannah, GA! I have never been there but from what I have seen on tv and pictures it looks gorgeous. I want to move there! If my husband re-enlist I told him to put us in for there. I want one of those old victorian houses.

Girl I wouldnt have made it this far w/o reading other peoples success stories? Are you going for the rny or band? Take care, Re

Oh..And I dont have a surgery date yet. The doctor is waiting for all my paperwork from the psych eval and nutrionist. Once they receive that I am good to go..I cannot wait. I am so ready..Have a great day!

I am getting it done by a regular doctor. We are stationed out of Fort Hood, TX. But, since my husband is deployed to Afghanistan we came home to Florida to be with my family. So, I am doing this without him. If I do it here I will have more help than if we were in Texas. He would be working and I would be on my own. I told him I wasnt going to post any pictures after the surgery. I want to suprise him with my results once he gets off the plane. He is due to come back in June.

Whens your date? Are you getting it done by a civilian doc or military?
