St. Louis newbie here!

Hey all.. Just thought I'd officially introduce myself. My name is Latrice. Been browsing around for a bit and made a post and thought I'd say hi! Right now on my WLS jouney I am awaiting approval from my insurance co. Have all test and paperwork done.. just waiting rather impatiently Can't wait to be on the other side.. at least I think... Not really ready for the pain, but truly ready for the weight to start coming off. Anyway, hope to get to know some of you real soon....!! Treece
