  1. I’ve used bariatric pal to research different topics from food suggestions to clothes. I also use the app Lose It! (Use it to lose it) To track my calories. I try to do an hour a day on my stationary bike(it’s become an obsession). Although my weight loss has slowed down considerably, my shape is still changing. I’ve donated most of my big clothes(3x) and even my new xl s are too big. And at this stage of my life, I don’t care if I have loose skin. Eating slowly is still my biggest challenge. I buy protein snacks from amazon to satisfy snacking.
  2. I was 69(almost 70) when I had the sleeve - every thing went well and I was sent home after an overnight at the hospital - I was sent home with Lovenox(blood thinner) - after a day at home I was in pain and my blood pressure dropped to next to nothing - I was rushed to the hospital and received over 8 units of blood - obviously I survived - I am 2 yrs post op and I would do the surgery in a minute - I haven't felt this good in 30 yrs - I wish I had done the surgery years ago - the only caveat is the blood thinner Lovenox apparently not always a good thing for post-menopausal women
