I'm glad they have a site for those of us over 40. I am really interested in hearing how those of us are doing.

I was banded on Oct 18 so its only been 3 days. Still recuperating from surgery.

Hello everyone....I am 46 y/o young and loving it. My only child is grown and traveling the country, I'm single and fancy free. I've been banded since April 2011 and have had my ups and down, but I keep striving to make myself healthy and of course, sexy...lol (in my eyes). I just wanted to say, let's get it in and good luck on your weight loss journey.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
