I am also 55 and was sleeved on the 28th. I had a BMI of 31 and am doing GREAT!! I went to Mexico and have had a good experience. I am on full liquids now and am having no problems drinking. Am down 12lbs :)

Here is another thread talking about people with lower BMIs http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/80717-lightweights-in-the-house-any-more-people-with-less-to-loseless-bmis/page__st__300#entry972227

I am starting this journey out with a BMI of 35. My insurance co. requires a six month med supervised diet.. My doctor has submitted my claims asking that they waive this criteria due to lap band complications.

Good luck to both of you on your weight loss journey.
