I am 51 and was sleeved two years ago. I am well below my goal and have just scheduled round two of my plastics. I slept with a cpap machine for 13 long years and stopped using it about six months after surgery. I had previously had three knee surgeries and could barely walk to the mailbox. I now walk/run 5ks and usually walk 5 miles a day.

Welcome!

I am only 48, but have had 5 back surgeries. That's how I gained this weight. But this time around I'm going to work out to strengthen my whole body. Where as before I just gave into this. Really excited. Already walking 3x around my block. Drinking lots of Water where as before no exercises and no water. I am 219 lbs and 5'3". Always was 120 before and 3 inches taller before

Depends what you mean by older. I am 60 years old and had my bypass surgery last September. It went really well and I recovered quickly. My problem is how to continue to lose weight as I seem to have hit a plateau. I am still overwieght though nowhere near what I was before.
