PS for a young Grammy!

guysis · September 4, 2006

I have a way to go before considering PS, but I know already that I will need it!

I'm a young 66 year old grammy of 8, mom of 3. My husband is very much against my having any PS done - he's worried about me having complications! (we celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary yesterday!)

Just wanted to know if there is anyone out there in the same age group that has had surgery and - how did you do - what did you do?

Thanks,

Hi! I had my surgery on May 8 of this year. So far I've lost 63 pounds. Next week I'll be a "young" 61. My doctor will only do the lap band surgery for people under 60, so I just made the cut-off. Before going to her, I never thought of a cut-off age. If you get it done, good luck to you.

Laura, I was talking about Plastic Surgery (PS).......I had the lap-band surgery in April of this year - I was 66 at the time of my surgery and have lost 43.5 lbs. Your weight loss is great! I'm jealous, but I'll take what I have and am confident that it will keep going.
