I have my surgery on the 17th of this month! My surgeon is Dr. Vierra in Monterey California. I have a meeting with a nurse tomorrow to get my exact time and everything. I'm super excited!

I'm 20 years old and my Doctor recommend I join a forum so here I am! I'm a college student and I'm hoping to get into the nursing program soon. Within a year or two.

My mother, two aunts, my grandpa, and two of my cousins have had the gastric bypass so I have a lot of support at home.

Welcome and congrats! This place is awesome! Everyone is very open and helpful. Never be afraid to ask a questions or just vent. :-)

Welcome! We are having surgery on the same day. Good luck and feel free to in box me if you want to chat.

Welcome and I think it is great you have so much support. And hopefully by taking this step so young you can avoid many of the weight related illnesses that plague most of us.

Ask questions, share the experiences of your family members as you have seen them go through it This place is a wealth of information and a sanctuary of support. Again welcome

Thanks everyone!
