Am I the only one?!

Heyy I just turned 20. I waiting for approval. My insurance denies it once so my surgeon is appealing it. I hope to get it soon

Hey guys I'm 17 and I'm going to do my surgery soon, although big problem I still get caught between the band and sleeve and don't no what to I've done so much researchhh it's not funny I bet I'd ace an exam on WLS and still can't make up my mind they both have risks and success!

Point is just wondering what made youse choose the sleeve and not band at a young age?

And do youse take any vitamins as I've heard you need to take many to fall pregnant in future.?? Aniwaiz let me know thanxx. Xx

I was going to get the band, but you have to go to get it filled or unfolded every month for a year, and I am in college

So it would e a hassle so my surgeon said the sleeve would be better for me

This is really cool. I have looked all on the net and could not find any info on ppl my age that have had the sleeve done. I'm 20 and I should be sleeved on the 24th of this mnth.

I just turned 18 and will be having my sleeve on June 11th

I'm 17 and booked to get sleeved 28 this month and starting to get cold feet for the teens that have got sleeved was it worth it? Like did you go through pain or complications?

I finally joined this website again cause I saw there are some girls around my age, FINALLY lol

I had my VSG on June 11, 2010 by Dr. Alvarez. I have lost 200 pounds and let me say it feels AMAZING!

I had just turned 18 a month prior to having my surgery, and a lot of people called me crazy. Now they tell me that it's the best thing I could have done for myself and I agree.

I would love to chat with you ladies, feel free to contact me. Any questions, concerns, or if you just wanna chat let me know

Hey lovely girls! I am approved for the sleeve surgery, and I'm 19 years old! I am so excited!!! Really hoping to get it in the next few months. Really nervous though. Would love to talk to y'all!!

Congratulations plehrer, I had mine on may 24th, so I'm 5 days out and I'm almost 7lb down. But the liquid diet is a pain. But in the end it will all be worth it. I wish you all the luck..
