Just got my call and will be having surgery June 2. I will be 66. It has been a long 11 months, but my time is here. Will be calling nut this afternoon to make an appointment for all my directions.

Best of luck to you! There are plenty of people having gastric bypass after 50. You'll do great

DENISE

Am on day three of my two week pre surgery diet. I am so excited about the future.

I was just searching the site for people in my age group and you. I notice you stated your surgery was this year. How are you doing after surgery?

HI @@Jazziejt

I DON'T THINK YOU'RE ASKING ME LOL BUT I'M DOING GREAT. I HAVE SO MUCH MORE ENERGY AND JUST GENERALLY FEEL SO MUCH BETTER. MY CARDIOLOGIST TOOK ME OFF OF 4 pills AND REDUCE 1 DOWN TO 50% OF WHAT I WAS TAKING. ONE OF THE BEST DECISIONS I EVER MADE.

HEY @@StabMyFinger HOW'S IT GOING FOR YOU SINCE THE SURGERY?

60yo and had surgery 3 months ago. Lost 75 pounds so far. Looking forward to enjoying life more than ever!

I was 66 when I had my surgery. I was so happy and grateful. I have lost 80 pounds and kept it off. Good luck on your journey.

I just got my date: December 1. I'm 61, and very excited about this new "tool" I will have in my life-long weight struggle. But I'm also fearful of the surgery, complications, and my reliance on food for comfort. I think I'll struggle with the "head hunger" part of it. But i am excited!

I am 60, surgery was this year August, 2015 this was the best decision I ever made. I am one of the those people who need a wake up call. I am more aware of understanding how and what kind of foods that work with my body. This is a life changing surgery for me. I am really excited about reaching my weight goal of 140, the doc say 160. I want to say congrats to anyone that has made this decision to have surgery.
