Hi, Beth. Congrats on your upcoming surgery. I would love to be your "telephone angel". I live in NJ and traveled to Atlanta to have my lap 11/16/99. I had a BMI of 40.2 and now my BMI is 25. Wearing a size 10 and have more energy at 50 than I had at 30. This week will be tough. You will have the pre op jitters, as we all did. But you will find that's it all worth as you begin your journey to good health and "skinnydom". Email me at
[email protected] with your telephone numbers, etc. Sandy
