Well, I think I found my place. I have been reading in the "50s" group, but I think this is where I belong. I am 59 and starting my journey to bandland as I see some call it. I have done the info mtng, psych, dietitian, and tomorrow is the sleep study cons. My DH is 63 and it looks like maybe he will follow after my lead. He says lets get me through it first.

I took a look at myself and thought "heck, you're almost 60 and better get a grip on yourself girl".

So here I am. I'll be lurking and reading, maybe even asking some questions along the way.

Oh, I feel so much more comfortable here!:tongue2:

Hello, I have just be rebanded after 2 years. i lost 64 pounds and started becoming quite sick. I had the surgery Oct. 7 2009 and I am impressed with how quickly I am recovering. All my stitches around the band were severed. I hope I can now lose the other 60 I need to lose.

Has anyone here done any plastic surgery when they lost all they wanted to.
