I just turned 50 in May and I'm being sleeved this Friday December 7, 2018 and I'm wondering if the weight loss is slower or harder after the sleeve for the 50 and up crew....

I'm 52! Getting sleeved on the 12th and I expect to lose just like a youngster! Speaking my future truth!

I popped in to see what is going on here.. I am close enough LOL.. I just turned 49 almost 10 days ago LOL

Happy belated birthday, skinny bidge!!!! ?

I was 58 when I was sleeved at the end of February. I may be losing slower than some others, but I'm down 110# in 9 months, so no b!tching from me! Welcome to the community!

I was 56 when I had my surgery. I think I did fine--look at my stats!

Awww man I'm on my dumb phone and can't see your stats [emoji45] but I'm assuming you did GREAT!!! [emoji3]

I was 56 when I got sleeved in February of this year. It’s definitely slower, but I felt 20 years older than my age before the surgery and now I feel 20 years younger!

Could be slower,could be sustained longer, but at 50+.60+70+ we are no longer required to be sprinters, besides in bifocals it's hard to run anyway. I plan to be a successful ? turtle one foot in front,of the other?easing down the path to Good Health.

Own Roadway

Own rate of Speed

Own Life to Live

Own Victory to win

And I am going to do it, wave as I amble by, cause you will see me THERE???

Love this!!!

I'm getting my sleeve December 26. I'm 56 years old and right now feel as if I'm 86.

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery!!

I was feeling older, tired, aching you name it...so I understand, but after surgery you will be amazed at how good you feel after you are all healed up and getting around, you will have much more energy, smile more...It's just a win win ?

Fabolous 50! Congratulations on your surgery date.

I was 45 when I was sleeved. I turned 50 in November. Celebrate that the weight is coming off fast or slow. Think of where your weight will be on your 51st birthday.

I turned 50 about 2 months after my surgery. I can't tell you if it came off slower than someone younger than me but what I do know is it came off faster and more consistently than any other diet I have been on.

Best of luck on your journey!
