      Sleeved on 9-1-2022, one week before my 71st birthday. I have lost about 60 pounds. Great experience and so happy I finally did it.

    I'll be 70 in mid-September, and my surgery date will likely be late August. I'll come back here and report how it went.

    Hi my name is Linda. I am at the beginning of this journey. I am 74 and will be looking at surgery the first of the year. I am excited about better mobility. I look forward to seeing how all of you do.
