BriarRose 437 Posted Saturday at 09:23 AM Thought I would pop in. I had my sleeve done January 2010. When I started my weight loss I I weighed over 300 pounds. 5 ft 2 ; I wouldn’t even go to my doctor at 320. I lost weight before I started officially. So here I am. 68 years old and I have lost the last 10 pounds I had been fighting with over the last two years. I AM LESS THAN HALF MYSELF. I weigh 150. And have for the last 5 months. I wear a size 12 jeans ! And bought size Medium tops. I have never worn a size 12 . Still working full time and take care of my adult daughter who has disabilities. Organic vegetable gardening - and raise hens for eggs. It doesn’t matter how long it takes to be healthy and to have a doctor tell you “ at your age and having excess skin and where you started … you do not need to lose more weight. You are good where you are. “. I know. My bmi could be lower but I am good where I am. Who knew that even existed. 4 1 DaisyChainOz, NeonRaven8919, summerseeker and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpartanMaker 911 Posted Sunday at 04:03 PM Well done, though I have to mention I'm a little confused? The title indicates 25 years post-op, but your surgical date indicates 15 years? Either way, you've done a fantastic job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
