Age 57

I'm 56 and waiting in line hopefully for Sleeve surgery.  I'm about to start my 12 week class.  It's so nice to find others around the same age who can share their experiences.

Hope all went well.  Keep us posted.

I am 64 and finishing up the red tape. Hope to have my surgury in a couple of months.

I just turned 60 and if all goes as planned, I will have VSG in June! It's good to know I'm not the only one who still thinks it's worth doing to improve my life and health!  20 years ago I would have been dreaming about looking good in a bikini, now I'll just be glad to get rid of my CPAP and ok, yeh, it'd be great to shop for clothes that aren't plus size! I'm nervous about the surgery, and I have to admit, I still change my mind from day to day. Just about the time I decide not to have the surgery, I change it back. Gosh, I wonder if I'm the only one who does that.

I just had my 58th birthday today and am looking at surgery in one week.  (I just got approved one week ago!)  I am hoping that the only regret I'll have will be that I didn't do it sooner.  My knees hurt all the time -- doesn't make me want to do much that doesn't involve sitting on my keister, but even that hurts when I get up.  So this is it.   I know several people who have had this and they all tell me the same thing -- that they'd do it again in a heartbeat.
I can't wait to throw away all the clothes that I  am sooooo tired of looking at in my closet.  I can't wait for the first time I meet someone in the hallway and they don't move way over to one side to let me through.  My 24 year old daughter has never known me as a normal size person and I'm looking forward to that.  And feeling good again. 

I need to go back and read these posts over and over to remind myself how lucky I am that my insurance just approved my surgery and I could be having the VSG in just a few weeks!!! My nerves have gotten the best of me lately!
