Under 21!

I need some Lap Band friends who are more my age. I'm over trying to find any people who are local. I just want to find some people who are 19 and 20 so I can have conversations with people my age! I'm driving myself insane. I work with a bunch of women over 30 who all have kids and I go to the gym. My only social interaction with people my age is with my boyfriend. I love him and all but I need to find some more friends. lol I have no clue what people my age do. I am over all the people I went to high school with.

Any suggestions on where i can meet people my age is much appreciated also.

there are several people on this site who are your age. Just start looking at their profiles down the left side of the screen. Most have their ages. When you see one, ping them a private message. I'm sure they would love to hear from you. I got some private messages from a young lady away at college. She was a hoot. She was going to the school my son attends and the school I graduated from many moons ago....... I enjoyed her youthful messages!!! Just start looking. The support group I belong to here in Corpus Christi has two or three very young girls that come. All college students. Have you tried some of the local support groups?

i actually am in a teen study here. I know one girl who had the surgery on the same day as me. i try to talk to her but she hasn't gotten nearly as close to the results I have. You can tell she doesn't like me for it. :/ The doctors won't tell me any other info and the support groups my doctor holds don't have any young people. I'll have to check out some other ones. I had no idea lap band had gotten that big until I joined this site.

Thanks for the input :]
