Red face Hello.

I would like to say Hi to everyone. I am new to this site and am just begining my journy towars wls, I am currently awaitng insurance approval and have a preliminary surgery date of 4/13/07 . I am a mother of 3 beautiful children and I work as nurse on a maternity floor. I have been trying to lose weight since my first pregnancy 9 1/2 years ago. I guess I would be considered a light weight when it come to wls my current weight is 265 and my goal is 130. If anyone knows aomeone in the Charleston, SC area who has had or is going to have wls I would love to meet them. Oh I guess I should say that I am going to have a lap bypass( I think) for my wls. Well I look forward to meeting people form this site, you all seem very nice from the other posts I have read.
