Anyone over 55 having the Gastric Sleeve Surgery? I'm over and I'm scheduled for Feb. 12th.

Glad everyone is doing so well... I am off all insulin and two different diabetes pills! Off all hbp meds too! Nearly 30lbs gone forever... 64 more to go!

I am 60 had the surgery 3-6-13 I have lost 22lbs. Having problems with nausea Dr wants me to have a scope I guess we will find something out.

Good luck! Keep us informed

Hi I'm, 56 and had my surgery on Oct 2012, and I am just now feeling OK. Had lots of problems, drug withdrawals (27 pills a day and stopped cold turkey on all), hormone problems (AWFUL) hot flashes, nausea and vomiting, became lactose intolerant. Lupus flare up, horrible flu that turned into pneumonia! One month ago I figured out that the protein shakes I was using had milk in it! That was the only way I was getting protein in me! I ordered from Unjury since they have lactose free shakes and my gosh what a difference, so now I am finally eating a average of 650 cal a day, really need to be at 1200 to maintain my weight. Took 5 months but I finally turned that corner!
