kyllfalcon 768 Posted December 4, 2012 Tons of middle aged and even older folks. Look in the forums, where you'll see special groups for folks of all ages. I'm pushing 60, was sleeved in March 2012 and am just a few pounds from goal. Sailed through everything. Lots of others sailed through too! Good luck!

Rootman 1,101 Posted December 4, 2012 After Two yrs how r u doing ? I'm doing fine, never made it to the "goal" weight I had chosen and since decided that it was unrealistic. I went from 275#+ (not sure how much I weighed exactly as I dreaded the scale, still do actually) . I got down to about 200# and my weight fluctuates between 200 and 205. I carry a lot more muscle then I used too, I swim and bike a lot now. It was the single best thing I have ever done for my health EVER. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
