Feeling too old for this procedure. Anybody out there 50+? Halla back.

Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app

Had surgery in June 2014 (age 45) June I will be five years out (age 50)

I bounced back from surgery easily with no complications. Surgery is my second chance in life. I feel much younger and healthier than I did in my 30’s. I can keep up with the grand kids and have more adventures in life.

And this is a very good reason to have had surgery. 50 is the new 30 for YOU!❤

I had gastric sleeve 12/26/10 — 5 1/2 months out. Feel fabulous. One of the BEST things I’ve ever done and not just for myself. I want to be a healthier and more fit and more fun wife, mama and Gramma! I truly feel the best is yet to come! Oh — down 52 lbs! Almost 1/2 way there!

Awesome!!!! Surgery for me was 2/20/19 - 3 1/2 months and down 40 from surgery weight and 58lbs down from starting weight 283. I feel like a million bucks!! I went from wearing a size 22, 20 and 18 to now wearing a size 16.

I am 55 and had the sleeve June 4 after many years of debating with myself whether or not I should have WLS. Hoping to find some women close to my age having recently had surgery to bounce things off off.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
