Hi everyone my name is Leann and im new here. I just got insurance that should cover gastric bypass and I am going to a seminar 2-16. I am super excited. My current BMI is 56.7. I am only 24 so im a young one. But I am hoping to find others to share my journey with and get info and stuff.

i was about your same BMI at 24 and still waited until 31 to have the surgery. Just kept thinking that I could fix it. You should be commended on taking this step so early in your life so you can enjoy it alot more!!
