  1. it is good to know I am not the only one over 60 that wants to get this weight off, I had the lap band but it just is not for me. I go to the doctors tomorrow for my sleeve date, I did not think the day would ever get here, will let keep up on the notes, I read a lot of notes before I decided to have this done, thinking I was to old, although I do not feel 69, I feel better knowing there are people my age wanting the same thing. later

    Have a great weekend!
  5. I am new to this group. I'm 64 and was sleeved on Monday. I am 5'5" and my starting weight was 209.6.

    I am very new to forums and am having a bit of trouble navigating. Do you have to 'friend' someone to view their profile? I'm not sure who to address my questions to... I'm wondering why my photo doesn't show up as a member of the 60 & Over group. Hopefully some of you will be able to help me get started.

    Hello :^) thanks for friending me.. Having looked at your profile I can learn nothing about you at all. So tell me about you? My guess is you haven't had the surgery? You can private message me if you like it's just if someone friends me I like to get an idea of who they are .. I have filled out my about me page probably more than most and then hope some like minded people might be attracted to talk with me :-) but it doesn't matter one bit if you are not at all like me either :-) Hev

Basic Information

About Ann2
Sleeved or not sleeved:
I have had a gastric sleeve.
Biography:
I'm 68 (now 69) and have struggled with overweight since I was 6 years old. I've been heavy, normal, heavier, slim, even heavier, normal, heavier .... You all get it.

I'm married to a wonderful man who supports my VSG journey. My goal is to become as healthy as I can as I head into retirement. I've done so many other things well in my life and refuse to let this problem defeat me.

I invite all the support anyone would like to give and offer mine to others on their VSG journey.

5 Months Post-Op - Down 68 Pounds and New NSVs

by Ann2 on 01-18-2015 at 08:55 AM
After 5 months post-op, this morning I weighed 167.4 pounds. I'm down from 235.6 (which I weighed 2-1/2 months prior to surgery). I've lost 68.2 pounds total (which includes losses from my own pre-op diet and the doc's pre-op diet) and 48.6 pounds since surgery on August 18, 2014.

Weight loss this month slowed to 7 pounds from monthly losses that have averaged 10.5 pounds. Toward the end of Month Four my bariatric P.A. urged me to start raising my daily cals from 800 toward 1,000,

by Ann2 on 12-18-2014 at 12:29 PM
Today is exactly 4 months post-op for me. Since many people want to hear about others' experiences, here are my results so far (all in pounds):

At the first surgeon consultation I weighed 235.6
After my own two-month diet I was down 11.6
After my surgeon's two-week pre-op diet, down another 8.0
1 month post-op, down another 10.4
2 month post-op, down another 11.8
3 months post-op, down another 8.8
4 months post-op, down another 10.4

Two Months Post-Op -- Down 24 Lbs. Post-Op, Down 42 Lbs. Total

by Ann2 on 10-18-2014 at 07:23 AM
And that headline pretty much says it all.

Very, very happy with how it's going. Had a super good VSG surgery and an easy-peasy recovery.

Four weeks post-op, I got a bonus surgery -- gallbladder was removed.

Was hitting protein targets (60-80 grams) by Day Five. Haven't thrown up once. Am now able to drink water easily, almost like pre-op. Energy is coming back strong. Clothes sizes are down from 20 to 16. Looking much cuter.
