[color=#40e0d0][size=4][font=georgia, serif]Going through life as a teenager is rough in the current world. Other peers & adults aren't nice at all , and as much as you would like to say what people say doesnt hurt, it does. After trying diet after diet & failing on multiple occasions , i tried Phentermine , which is a appetite suppressant that made me loose weight but once i was out of meds, i gained all the weight back and then some. So i met a lady a Berlington Coat Factory who was plus size but looked like she had lost a bit of weight & my mom had a conversation with her about her weight loss . She told my mother that she had the Gastric Bypass , & my mother told her i was thinking about having the Lap Band , but she brought to my attention that you get better results with the Gastric Bypass & quicker . Being the impatient teenager i am, fast results ment the quicker i get to end all of the points and stairs that i get in my daily life for being overweight , so i looked into & took her number. We talked over text for days and i decided i was going to do it so she gave me the doctor who did hers & i set up an appointment with him at Northside Hospital. It took six long months to finally get done with allllllllll of the clearances & evaluations i had to do because i was so young. I had the surgery May 30th 2012 and ive loved my shedding pounds the more & more they come off. [/font][/size][/color]
