aliandrews 98 Posted April 7, 2012 Wow, you are so young. I just looked at your profile and it showed you were over 300 lbs. Did you have any comorbities? You were brave for doing something so drastic at your age. I hope everything goes well for you after everything you have gone through. I don't know if you are the youngest person to go through this or not. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
