I wish I was that young when I took control of my obesity. Your body will thank you. Just remember though that it still is a lifetime commmittment to a new lifestyle. It does not end when the weight is gone. Do not be nervous. I know you have a lot of information coming at you and will have for the first 3 months, but don't worry. Take care of yourself, and ask questions. Your bariatric team is your biggest asset at this time and are there to help no matter the question.

I'm 25, so a tad older, but still SO nervous, I am going to my first appt on the 19th of January. Just be proud for making the choices NOW instead of waiting, even 5 years. I would give anything to be able to go back & make this choice earlier.

I'm just scared , I herd you loose you hair, can't drink alcohol. I just don't want to loose my social life

[kfuller716 6]

I'm happy with my decision

[C_TimesThree 64]

You don't lose all your hair, it will probably thin out but it will regrow & you can drink but moderation is key.

[kfuller716 6]

Well I don't really drink, just saying in general!! So nervous

[MOMW 71]

Of course it scary because it is surgery, but keep your eye on the end prize. It will be so worth it and your social life will even by enhanced because of it.

I'm eighteen, and I had mine done ten days ago! I know exactly what you're thinking about. The first thing I thought when they said no carbonated beverages was 'what about beer pong?!' Ahaha! Honestly, it's not going to ruin your life. You just have to focus the first six months on Protein and drinking Water. Also, when you're skinnier and healthier, your social life will be poppin'! Gotta look forward to being a bad b***h. (;
