Hello :-) names Katrina. I'm 22 years old. I finally got my surgery date for gastric bypass! It's been a long 6 months but well worth it because I learned a lot about myself, my body and the way food is (par say) I have lost 25 pounds so far! I want to lose another 10 before surgery but its hard!!! I'm here if anyone needs support! Heck I sure do!!

Have a wonderful day everyone! <3

I am 20, Haven't gotten a date yet but I have come to find out that there isn't very many younger people having this done.

You're right, I've seen Alot if older people getting it done. But I searched on YouTube and there's a lot younger people than you think. Good luck!!!

Hi there! I'm 22 & I am 8 months post op & I was nervous as heck getting my surgery, and if you need any tips or advice I can try to help you out! Keyword try

[ShineBright724 70]

I'm 24 and haven't gotten a date yet (waiting for approval) but hoping that I'll hear something soon! I feel like people in their 20s may be getting this procedure but aren't really utilizing this forum.

[ShineBright724 70]

Still is nice to have a network of people in your age range who can understand what you're going through!

[JessieMarie08 0]

I totally agree! But hey it's all good, and yeah it's nice to know that there are other 20yr olds who know exactly what we are going through

If your referring to me; I've been eating very little meals.. about 3 times a day. A lot of water!! And I do cardio first (treadmill, stairs etc. ) and then I work on my arms (so I don't get excess skin) lol and then I do leg lift and last the elliptical! :-)

[Barbiedoll77 24]

I am too old to be on here I guess..lol

BUT I am 36 and I feel like I am 21 again..does that count ?

[Barbiedoll77 24]

I think the doctors should approve this WLS for all the young ones !!

I would have done anything to have had this opportunity 10 years sooner !!
