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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
