I guess I'm WAY late to this party but I have to chime in. I am 20-16 and don't plan on joining my 30s any time soon. :) Class of 92 and oh! The hair! I am pretty sure the hole in the ozone layer is directly over my small town. We will be having our 20th reunion next year and though I can GUARANTEE I will not have my cheerleading/majorette/softball/flirty figure back by then, I will definitely look a LOT better than I do now! I get sleeved (hopefully) next month so by the time the reunion comes around I should be feeling pretty dang fine. I won't be as skinny as the others but compared to what I am now I will be feeling like the queen of the school. :)

As far as fashion goes, my 14 year old daughter wore ripped blue & white striped jeans with a tank top and oversized (off the shoulder) white tee shirt and Tom's (which were $2 at Family Dollar when I was in school!) today. I could've saved myself SO much money if I had just saved my clothes!

Hey 30s crew! I turned 35 in April. OMG! Can I just tell you that when my son watches MTV now I tell him stories about when they used to show music videos, and Headbanger's Ball. I don't know what the hell this Jersey Shore crap is, but it wasn't on in the 80s!

I was sleeved almost 3 months ago, and I've lost nearly 60 pounds already. I want to get back to my 90s weight of 135. We'll see. I think as long as I can shop in the regular section of the store (nearly there -currently in a 14) that I'll be okay with that. So, I've got a few grey hairs now. You can't stop the sexy!

So funny that you would bring up MTV. I remember Real World 1 and before that when MTV actually played videos.

Hey all. I'll be 39 at the end of June...another Class of '90 big hair gal (though we did get color pictures in our annuals..lol).

We didn't even have MTV available at our local station where I'm from, but we did get Night Tracks Friday night videos...anyone remember those?

Surgery Date: May 10, 2011

That was the ONLY way that I could see new videos was Friday Night Videos...lol. We lived in a very rural area and my parents were not keen on getting a satelite dish in their yard (cable was not an option) and so we had about 4 channels and sadly MTV was not one of them.

Hey no fair that you got color yearbooks. I guess that probably goes back to the rural living in a small town...no extra $$ to pay for color printing!:D

I have celebrated 6 anniversaries of my 29th birthday. I've lost 43 pounds since having surgery in March and wonder why the heck I spent my 20's getting so plump when I should have been living it up. Never too late to start, right?! And with the class of '93 reunion coming up in 2 years, I'm looking forward to showing them all that I've still got it!!! Congrats to everyone on the weight loss!!!

Class of 95 here. Never been to a reunion and probably never will. High school was so not my thing. However I have lost 75 pounds since my surgery on Feb, 7th. Can't believe how fast it's gone by. Life is much better now than it ever was then.

Hello! I am 36 and my 20yr reunion is in 2013. I won't be surgery eligible (green lit by Aetna) until November 2011. But that gives me plenty of time to git 'er done!

Class of '94 here!!! I'm 35 and had my VSG on 4/25/11...

I was an MTVaholic! I loved Madonna's videos and Devo's too. I swear, they really need to change their name to Reality TV now, since they NEVER play videos anymore! I have to watch Fuse in order to see music or VH1's Pop-Up Video! (I love that show! On VH1-2 now).

((shhhhh....dont tell anyone but I dont like Jersey Shore but I LOVE Jerseylicious!))

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
