22 yr old female in Seattle, WA area looking for people my age!

I will be 22 years old in August and I live north of Seattle, in WA state. I have a consult scheduled for the 30th of this month with Dr. Lauder in Kirkland. My mom had Gastric Bypass about a year ago and he was her surgeon. I am interested in getting to know other people around my age that are going thru this same thing. I currently weigh about 285 and have gained about 100 pounds in the last five years. Its horrible. I am seriously considering this surgery, I just think it would help to have others like me to talk to. Email me if you'd like to be penpals! Jessica
