I am so sick of waiting!

i am 17 yrs old but i feel like my life is allmost over! I just graduated high school I opted to go to community college in order for me to get my weight under control. i have met with a surgeon and he seemed so happy about me wanting to do this. but its been about 4 months! i know this is serious and i know everything that could happen, but im willing to go through anything to be happy.
if anyone is around my age please, lets be friends!

Hey Olivia!
I am Jennifer and I am 19. I had my surgery on November 20th 2007, when I was 18. I know its hard waiting, but its well worth the wait. I wanted to have my surgery since I was 16, but insurance would not pay until I was 18. I have had no problems with my surgery and I have lost 115lbs! I am so happy with my decision! I am here if you ever need to talk! I would love to be friends!
Hope to hear from ya!
Jennifer
