Good Morning. Any lurkers out there?
I was thinking maybe the LW board seems a little like a clique and maybe some lurkers are hesitant to post introductions. Well, here's a chance to just say, "hi, I'm here and I gotta question or two". We really aren't a clique, we've just gotten comfortable with each other but always make room for more. So, if you've been lurking or are new to the site, please introduce yourselves.
While we're at it, anybody who wants to introduce or reintroduce themselves is welcome to do so.

Hi, my name is Barb and I am MO. I am a nurse and have been "listening" to you folks on here and love the interaction I see. I dont feel like you are a clique, but more like a very supportive family that I would like to get to know! Thanks for the welcome, Gina!

Hello fellow LW's!
I have posted some time ago, but became a lurker. My name is Suzeanne from Wesley Chaple, FL and I love this board. You guys make it so comfortable that I will come out and be a lurker no more! The wealth of knowledge on this board is so valuable to me that I know the info is correct and the help is always there. I still have trouble putting up a picture so if someone could assist me on that I would be grateful. Thank you for being here.

Hi Everyone!
My (middle) name is Rosa and I'm a LW.
I had RNY on June 28th and have lost 68 lbs since, which puts me 33 lbs away from my goal of 130, which I hope to reach while it's still cold outside.
I live in NYC, and am quickly becoming a rather serious dancer (again) in my free time.
Right now, I'm the smallest I've ever been as an adult. And I love it!
Welcome to the board, everyone. I was a newbie too until September. Now I feel like these folks are my family - and we're yours, too! Even if you didn't know it.
