Hi I am a 57 years young guy that wanted to stay that way. I gound myself one day three years back at 360 lbs I was shocked I had been laid up for over ten weeks from a leg surgery much better now. I immediately gave up all soda and really nothing else, in 4 months with the help of being active I dropped to 320. Two years ago I met the love of my life and she has motivated my to want to be healthier and to be able to do the things I used to and have never done on our upcoming honeymoon in Nov. We joined weight watchers together we started going to gyms, even zumba classes they fun. I lost but could not keep it off my leg hampered my activities. So Feb of this year to keep my new years resolution. I sought out the help of a Bariatric Surgeon. I committed to the Sleeve program and could not be happier. On March 5th I had the procedure done and am happy to say I am now down 55 lbs . I have not been under 300 in over 6 years. Its amazing feeling . Hope to gèt to know you all well thank you!

Congrats. Your story is somewhat similar to mine. I was 320 and joined WW. I learned to love working out. I was 50 and running 5 mikes, biking 50 plus, lifting weights etc. I got down to 185 where I stalled. then I had a major hip injury and surgery. Working out was not an option. Slowly I gained 50 pounds back and it has been a yo yo ( with more yo than yo) for 2 years. I recently reinjured my hip simply due to the weight gain. I am now up to 280 and it's feels worse than the 330 ever did! That was the last straw. I am in the early stages...not even had first appointment. But I know how good if can be..and I am determined to get back there.
