Slower than molasses, but...

[lifer 39]

I had my surgery right before my 60th birthday. Ten pounds a month is perfect. I think we are much better off losing it at this rate. In my opinion, it really helps let your skin keep up with the loss. I don't have hardly any excess skin;). What I said to myself before surgery: "I can't do anything about getting old but I CAN do something about being old and fat ! "

Best of luck to you all!

We can start our own support group, either here on the site or a Facebook group. If it were a fb group, it can be closed, so others can't see it. If there is interest, I will set something up. Thought?

I will join!

I do not participate in FB. But would be happy to keep an active thread here on this site.

I would also be happy to join a thread here. I am 63 and having my surgery September 13th. I will be very happy with a 10 pound loss per month.

We can start a Support Group on this website, under the Community tab. I will set it up and just call it "Over 55". Ok?

Great job!

And years later when you are maintaining those losses it won't matter a bit how long it took to get there.

If you're using the app instead of the desktop site, it's under Gastric Sleeve Support Groups, Social Support groups, all the way at the end.

I found the support group website. Says no threads that I have permission to view?

[fezik23 240]

No one has posted anything yet. Did you try to post?

[DEBBIERENEE@55 1]

Im 59 and Had my surgery in February. I wish you ladies a lot of luck. I don't think you are ever too old for the surgery. If you are willing to put in the work... then go for it. It's fabulous and you will feel so wonderful.
