I am 20 years young :) and I am an Army wife. I will be having some form of gastic surgery this year and I just wanted to get some more knowlege and opinions on it. I was looking into the sleeve, but doing my research, I really think the bypass would be best for me. I have been over weight my intire life. I have also been very active my whole life. I was a cheerleader, gymnast, on the crosscountry and track team, played volleyball and tennis. I really did it all. But I could never lose the weight. I am now at my breaking point weighing 298lbs. I have never weighed this much in my life and it really scares me. If I don't take matters into my own hands, I am afraid of the end results. At first, I felt guilty about making this choice and I kept wondering what people would think. I didn't want them judging me and thinking I took the easy road out. But then i realized the people worth keeping in my life would be happy for my and show me support. I am nervous, because I don't want to lose my hair or to be unhealthy, but I know I am making a life changing choice that will help me in the long run. Any advice to offer or give would be amazing! Thank you all for your support and I will be praying for all of you and your journeys.
