Hello ,, I am 68 and having the sleeve in 2 months! Is there anyone out there my age who has done the sleeve?? If so please chat with me??

You are too funny! My surgery was 12/22/21 and I'm 60. The hospital said they get a lot of older people. I did very well. No pain, left the hospital early, the next day. Everything is going great. The only thing I would say about being older is that I've lost a lot less weight than the younger people. I've only lost 20 lbs since pre op diet which was started Dec. 9th. Good luck to you.

I am 59. I’ve lost 20 since surgery 2 months ago. I am eating much smaller portions. As long as it continues, I’ll be happy.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
