toniisaac 18 Posted December 17, 2018 I agree that everyone is different. I knew about the gas pain. Well had been told it was possible. Thought I had lucked out then Bam! It was there. I am so glad that it did not last long and wasn't any worse than it was. Ever since except feeling hungry I am doing good. One week in see the doctor today for my one week check up.

jasmineinmymind 204 Posted December 17, 2018 I'm 51. I know I will be one of those people who really wishes they'd done it much earlier! I can only go forward from here. 2 ProudGrammy and toniisaac reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted December 17, 2018 And we will all be here for you anytime you need to talk. Over 50s have successful surgeries, so do 60s and 70s, no reason to believe you're exempt for victory. We wanted it even more than our daughters and grandaughters for we know what a life without surgery is like. So use your Baby Boom gumption for a good purpose-YOU! We will be anxious to see all you can be, cause we think you're dynamite already. So nothing to it but to do it! 2 toniisaac and Zebby67 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irol888 39 Posted December 22, 2018 Hi! I’m 54 and just had RNY on 11/28/18 - a little over 3 weeks ago. I’m doing great! With all the pre-testing, the Dr and team will make sure your a candidate for the surgery. Age is just a number! 1 1 ProudGrammy and Zebby67 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toniisaac 18 Posted December 22, 2018 I have a question! Some Surgeons keep you a liquid diet for 3 weeks and and say pureed or soft at 21 days, what is phase in order?Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Zebby67 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rockhardbear 8 Posted December 22, 2018 I just found out my surgeon has u on a liquid diet only two days before the surgery! I will be on liquid diet the next two weeks after then purée foods a week and if I’m doing well then regular! I’m so ready surgery is the 7th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
