I'm 29 and was sleeved about 3 weeks ago! :D

I'm 22 and extremely thankful to have had the opportunity to get this done at such a young age. I'm 7 weeks out (tomorrow) and loving my sleeve! :-)

I'm 39, had my sleeve done in Oct when i was 38. But i got my band when i was 36. I wish i would have done it sooner before i had kids so that i could have had some of this energy when my son was smaller, but he is still young so it is all good!

I am a 48 years young and was sleeved on Jan 6th!wink.gif

I am 43 and was just sleeved on 1/7. I totally wish this surgery was available to me 10 years ago, but I'm hoping to turn back the clock a decade or so once I get to goal. biggrin.gif

I was 63, had revision surgery last Oct after 4 miserable years with the Lap Band. After many years of diets and prescribed diet pills and the band, I am finally losing weight! Best thing I ever talked my Doctor into doing. Good luck with yours!
