I'm 40 and was sleeved October 25, 2010. Life most everyone else I wish I could have done it sooner but I'm planning on enjoying my 40's to make up for it. :D

I'm 46 and am delighted to have had my sleeve done on January 18, 2010. I believe it will be a wonderful tool to help me lose weight and a huge change in my life.

I'm 36 years old, and was sleeved in November. Wishing that my dad (who is 62) would do it, but he's got a different excuse every day.

I'm 38. (I will be 39 on Feb.6, so yep, I too am still claiming to be 38). I was sleeved just 5 days ago.

I was sleeved a month after my 28th b-day! Loving it, and the thought of being healthy for the rest of my life! People would make comments before, like "Your young, you don't need surgery....You can do it on your own"! But by then I had already been battling my weight for about 14yrs. They actually made me stop & question myself. So glad I didn't listen to those people!

I'm 42, sleeve date 24 Feb. I'm not too bothered about having waited to do this, life has its rhythms. I wasn't willing to do a DS (ever, as 41 was my highest BMI -- though my surgeon referred to it as the BMW of surgeries lol) or RnY (again, not keen on anything touching the intestines), though I've looked at them several years ago as possibilities. The sleeve was the first thing that said YES to me. (And I didn't even know about the band until it was already not done anymore in this country due to too many complications.)

I'm 58 and had my sleeve on 01/03/2011. Like all of the other "seasoned" individuals here B) , I wish it had been around 30 years ago.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
