Ebeth,
I'm 20, also young like you and I'm planning to have the band this coming January. I totally understand where you're coming from. I've been overweight most of my life and diets just don't work. We have our whole lives ahead of us and we want to be able to enjoy them and be healthy. Like other posters said here and elsewhere that they wish that the band was around when they were younger. If we have the opportunity to do something that will give us the ability to be healthy and enjoy the rest of our lives then why not?
with everything!
