43...and I wish I had done it sooner. Like others, I went to an educational session and thought about it, but didn't follow through. Also like some others here, I now feel so much YOUNGER because I feel so much better! I have people tell me all the time I look younger too! ;)

Surgery in less than 2 weeks. 43 years old. Considered lap band 10 years ago. Probably a good thing I waited. I'm ready now!!!

I am 26 years old and 2 days post op! Had my vertical sleeve with dr Verboonen here in Tijuana on February 18th. Currently relaxing in my hotel room. Then flying back home from San Diego tomorrow morning. ????
