Hello everyone. My name is Jennifer and I'm 20 years old. I almost have my surgery date ( they are telling me end of july). I guess I am looking for some support through this whole process.
Thanks to anyone interested.

Hey Jenny!

Welcome to the family. I was banned when I was 20 and I am now 24...it is one of the best decisions I have made in my life. It is in no way the easy way out, but really a guide to help you along the path to a healthier you.

Jenny--Hi. It sounds like we are on the same schedule. I just had my consult yesterday and am now waiting for the insurance thumbs up. I've just started my pre-op diet (yea protein shakes) and hope have surgery in late July as well. I'm 26 and live on the west coast. I would be happy to chat with you all the time, anytime!!

Hey more 20 year olds lol. It's weird I still go to the teen section cuz I still feel like I am one =( I'm not banded yet, but I'm on a waiting list so hopefully it'll be soon - they tell me between now and november (great time frame right?)

Hey everyone! I'm 23 and getting banded July 18! I'm really proud of us for getting out there and doing this!

My surgeon has told me that being younger definitely helps us stop bad habits early, and is beneficial to our overall recovery and success! yay!
