Thanks for the words of encouragement from everyone. It makes me feel better about starting this whole process!

I'm 27 I'm 238 pounds with a bmi of 40 my family doesn't really get it because my mom lost weight and kept it off with slim for life and my brother lost and keeps it off with herbalife. The only support I feel I get is from my aunt who had bypass done. I want them to know that it's not the easy way out at all and my dr told me to invite them to visits and support groups before surgery. It's just making me rethink my decision.

Thinking of the sleeve I live in Plano I'm 27. My family isn't a huge fan of my decision. Nervous about the whole thing. I've done my 1st of 6 nutrition visits hopefully will have surgery in December. Any other young sleeves that have any advice? It's a huge decision to make at such a young age. My family thinks in taking the easy way out.
