Hey! I'm Hannah. I am 19 years old. I am new to this forum, and I am so glad that i found it! It has helped me alot through this process to read other people's bariatric surgery journey. I have been over weight my whole life, i have tried many diets and exercise programs, nothing would help; I would lose weight and gain double that amont within the next 3 months! I finially decided to go through this process of getting the surgery done after doing research for the past 2 years! I wish now that i would not have took so long to plunge into the process, but hey i am now more informed about the whole thing which has helped me figure out that i am totally prepared for the surgery and i am not afraid of it. At first i was weary of telling people that i was going in for weight loss surgery, mostly because i was afraid of what people would tell me of their opinoins, afraid of people being against my decision that will save my life. But i just tell the people that have a negative thoughts about my decision, that i am doing what i think is right for me and it is my life and i can and will do whatever i have to do for me. I want to say thank you to everyone on here for posting their questions, writing about their journeys, posting their inspiring pictures, ect.... because it is great to imagine what my future will be like after the surgery and it is all great motivation!...
