    Everyone tells me I'm tooo young, opinions?

    I don't think it's really anyone's business to tell you what age you should get the surgery done at. Obviously you're doing this at the advice of doctors and if they say it's okay, then I'd put more of my faith in them than people who have no idea what the surgery is anyways Do what you need to do on your terms. Not anyone else's!

    Would You Get A Rny Tattoo?

    I haven't had surgery yet but I'm thinking about getting a dandelion tattoo. I know super cliche but it symbolizes letting go of the excess and change

    HELP! What did you ask your surgeon?

    Hey! I haven't had my pre-op surgeon appt yet but at the nurse practitioner appt I definitely had a bunch of questions. Here's a few: - Based on my body type, etc...what percentage of excess body weight could I expect to see in the best situation? - What exercises are best post-op? Do you usually suggest Water aerobics, yoga, etc? Which are better than others to help promote healing? - Is there an emergency line that I can call specifically for bariatric patients? - What type of clothing should I wear post-op at the hospital and at home following the hospital? - How long do you expect me to stay at the hospital? - How much movement can I expect to be doing during the first few days post-op? - What are the signs and symptoms of something going wrong post-op?

    I'm pissed!

    OMG that's ridiculous. I despise people like that. Congrats on the 26 miles!!
  9. Hey everyone! I'm new to the BP website/forums. Just curious as to how old everyone was/is/will be when they had/have their surgery! I'm 23 currently and will probably be 24 or almost 25 by the time I have my surgery (August 2017) - birthday being October 4. Looking to connect with people around my age or a little bit older but I'll talk to anyone regardless!
