I am 62 having my surgery on January 10th - will turn 63 on January 13th - best birthday present I have given myself in years. So good to read all the success stories of our age group - I just want to be healthy for the next phase of my life - the sleeve was the best option as I too have tried every diet known to man/woman - my family Doctor gave me speed at age 13 so my weight struggle has been for 50 years. Please keep in touch - need the support of the mature group at this point

Self Pay In Ct - Looking For Gastric Sleeve Surgery Cost Comparisions

So glad you called her and hope that you can work something out with the group - Dr. Ben has done many surgeries and has great pre and post people working with him. My surgery is January 10th; just got a call from the hospital for a pre-surgical exam and had all the blood work done today as well. I am heading up to Vermont for the next four days to Celebrate the New Year - it will truly be a New Year! Keep in touch and let me know how it goes for you. -
II just wanted to be sure I could go out and enjoy the same things I have always enjoyed without overdoing it as I do now. I can drink with the best of them; but know I will no longer do that - just don't want to stop completely; my plan is to stop drinking for three months then see where it takes me. Just relieved to know there are others in this group with the same thoughts.

So very glad I found thes posts - surgery in two weeks and honestly was concerned as I too am a drinker - not an abuser - just enjoy drinks with friends and family. I am prepared to give it up for a couple of months - but hopefully by spring/summer I will manage to have some drinks on the beach just won't have to feel so badly about how I will look in the bathing suit. Great to know I am not alone with this.............................
