Hey there =] I'm from Louisville myself, 16 years old, and am consideirng getting banded! I completely understand where your coming from on this!

I didn't see that before, thank you. And Don't worry, I'm pretty safe about that, I have never met a single person I know online in an offline setting, but I thank you for the concern and advice <3

Hey everyone. I'm glad I found this forum, hopefully it will help me make a descsion. My name is Emily, I'm 16, and am severely overweight, completely running out of options to improve my weight. I need to drop at least 100 pounds to be considered even slightly healthy. I've been on diet and exercise since i was about 10, and my weight has continued to balloon. =S I've been on weight watchers, gone to support groups, gone to gyms, I'm a vegitarian, and am about to go on birth control to see if my weight is hormone linked. If the brith control doesn't help, im considering having lap band surgery done before my senior year of high school. Hopefully, this forum will help me in my choice, and as I said, I'm very glad I found it.

Hello, and thank you for the feedback =] My mother seems like you a lot, hopefully you daughter understands betetr than i did when iwas her age that you really arent trying to be mean. I just found my mother purely hateful at that age. =S My mother and father support my choice, seeing how miserable I am bot emotionally and physically. I use to be a ballet dancer and had to stop due to growing weight, since then I've just been generally sick and miserable. You do have to be 18 to get the surgery, but they take special cases for those close to the age. I'm hopign the doctors will approve me, I'm tired of going through high school not feeling able to do the things I want. I'm alreayd in the process of getting doctor approval though, in case my birth control fails me.

Hello! No, I haven't checked out the chat room yet. I certianly will have to :3 Thank you <3 P.S. Forgive my spelling XP i'm a touch dyslexic.
