Good afternoon Ladies,

I am so happy to hear all of the success you all are having with your procedures. I found out it is never too late to want to have a healthier you and do something about it. I am 18 months into the original sleeve surgery and a little over a year since the corrective surgery. I feel fantastic and am ready to retire and live a nice life in my body.

Hi, I had the sleeve done 11 months ago. Its been a slow journey, I had to get thru insulin resistance and I'm physically only able to walk or exercise so much due to an old injury. I do walk my dog 2-3 miles a day but cant do too much more. I used to exercise a lot! I try not to compare myself to any others. I do what I can, have lost 57 pounds and hope to lose another 13, that puts me within the normal range for my height, but the high end. At this age, I'll take it!

Good luck to you, wish you the best on your journey.

I am 57 years old and just had my sleeve completed on 1/25/23. I am 1 week post op and feel great. I am so blessed that I have not experienced pain and am not having trouble staying hydrated. I need to get in more walks right now. It is so cold where I live and walking laps in my house is getting boring. lol. I am looking forward to this journey and I hope I have as much success as everyone on this thread! 😊

Hello, I’m 65 (will be 66 by the time I have surgery). Just finished my pre surgery requirements and have my last appointment with the surgeon in March. Should get my date then. Hopefully by the end of March or 1st of April. Should’ve done it sooner, but it is what it is.

I had my sleeve 12 years ago - I will be 67 next month - so I was 55 ! I started my pre op diet at 320 lbs. got to 175. Gained some over 8 years then took it back off and then some. Now weigh 162. From a plus size 30 to a petite size 14. Saggy ? Yes. More surgery ? Nope. Happy ? Yes ! Loving it. Wish I had done it sooner !

      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.
